Microsoft is a blatant monopoly; that has been proven in a court of law (the Supreme Court, no less!)
Um no. Only Judge Jackson found that Microsoft is a monopoly. Judge Jackosn is a District Court Judge (the lowest Federal Court).
And yet, Transmeta is aiding Microsoft in their quest to dominate the planet
Maybe Transmeta is a small company that sees a great opportunity to sell their chips to the LARGEST software ocmpany in the world? If they didnt persue this opportunity, they would be sued by every single one of their shareholders.. dont forget, they are in the business to make money!
Its not Linus and Bill working together. Its Transmeta and Microsoft working together. Trasmeta is in a position to sell the Curuso chips to one of the largest software companies in the world. Isnt that a great business opportunity?
I think so.
IM SO SICK OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING All of you tech clowns say the same thing. Oh its not obvious, oh its so easy. You are all using HINDSIGHT to do this. Of couse it is obvious, once you see how to do it. But YOU didnt come up with it yourself. THATS why the OTHER person gets the patent And another thing, how does everyone know about this patent if it has not been issued? Stop your bitching and start inventing. Think about it: 1. The invention must be NOVEL. (35 USC Sec. 102) Has anyone actually done this before? Not. Oh, I saw that once in X-windows (thats not the same thing) It doesnt seem so. 2. The invention must be USEFUL. (35 USC Sec. 101) Anything is useful. It doesnt have to be useful to you. but useful to SOMEONE 3. The invention must be NONOBVIOUS (35 USC Sec. 103) This means THAT: it would not HAVE BEEN obvious to one of ordinary skill in the art. Notice the HAVE BEEN. That means, at the time the patent was filed. not using YOUR HINDSIGHT. SO,if there is a reference that discloses this, then produce it. Otherwise, you are using your own hidnsight to make flighty comments. GEEZ!
