Hey, I'm one of those people. I started in CS didn't feel like taking the math (or rather it didn't want me to take it). Switched into the AIS (Accounting Info Sys) program got my bachelors and masters in it. Now I'm doing database stuff and it amazes me on a daily basis how bad my CS friends are a database implementation.
I don't really think they feel threatened that much by the 2 guys trillian has quite yet. But yer right... if the lawyers come out the little guy is probably going down. That is unless someone desides to champion the case (unlikely... yes i watch too much tv)

Thats the thing tho.. Trillian isn't fighting them with lawyers.... they're fighting with coders. Hacking their way around the problem. Aol to my knowledge hasn't told them to cut it out, just tried to prevent the whole thing.

Are you kidding? Aol's folks are all dealing with people who think a mouse is a footpedal.
