Wrong...maybe you're missing the obvious rights to a fair trial. He is following due process, by not allowing the good ole boy network. How fair a trial do you think is gonna happen if you get to choose your judge and jury with the other guy having no choice in the matter. That's why juries are picked by both sides and why there is no choice on which judge, but they cycle.
Hey how about this; only go to court if you know the outcome, because the judge is going to rule in your favor unless you have absolutely no case. I guess that sounds like a fair trial.
And yes a corporation is considered an individual in the eyes of the law, and it's employees are also considered individuals under the law.
This isn't hard to figure out, and yes it does happen a lot, they just got caught because they have no other motive for filing these lawsuits other than FUD.
Sounds good to me. Sue everyone even your closest partner(that isn't Intel) have them back down and create some FUD in the other companies. The others backed down because they have stakes in other areas than PC's (consoles anyone?).
It's funny I've watched the stocks on this company and a friend (against my advise) bought them when they were shooting up.
I'm sure everyone remembers the market blitz and while they are an abysmal failure in PC's, their tactics have them in the market with consoles.
It is hoped that their tactics will fail hard enough, because of the competition in the PC market, that it will take them down everywhere else. It will if they don't produce anything other than litigation. Litigation costs money and rarely produces anything other than a loss.
It is cool the watch corporate darwinism in action. The weak get eaten (Rambus). I'm sure that Intel left for more than the litigation, because they do enough of their own. It probably has to do with Rmabus's technology plan or maybe lack thereof. You can't sit on your arse and collect royalties(nothing wrong with collecting royalties for your work) and stay alive. It has to be competitive and you have to keep innovating. They aren't as far as I can see.
I've probably rambled enough.
I think this is funny... First off Gore is a joke. The reason you don't here much from him on this issues is because he's a parrot. Think about it, he has no passion about anything, that's how he got on the VP ticket with Clinton (and don't even get me started on that crook). The one thing I can say about Bush is that he didn't lie about like Gore's compadre Bill Clinton .
I'd rather have someone for a change who would stand up for something, right or wrong. Otherwise they fall for anything. Clinton is a perfect example. Can you say medical reform. That turned out to be one of those passionless speeches to win the votes and nothing else.
It is a pretty sad case, I wouldn't vote for any of them because they either lack integrity or have policies I can't stand. Not that it matters since this country is really run by the corporations. Ask yourself how the two big political parties get their funds.
I would love to walk in there as an army expell everyone from office and enact new laws requiring full disclosure and background checks for anyone thinking of going into office. There is nothing like the feeling of having to tell foreigners you have known crooks in charge of your country's welfare.
Is it me or does anyone actually believe anything those political bozos are spouting.
