Microsoft appeals Eolas decision | |
|
||
| Time: 01:05 EST/06:05 GMT | News Source: CNET | Posted By: Robert Stein | ||
|
The 174-page document, filed June 3, attacks a U.S. District Court decision that said Microsoft violated a patent, owned by the University of California and its Eolas spinoff. The patent describes how a Web browser can run plug-in applications. The August decision originally granted the University of California and Eolas $1.47 for each of the 354 million copies of the Windows operating system that included the Internet Explorer browser between Nov. 17, 1998, when the patent was issued, and Sept. 30, 2001. In January, the court added $45.3 million in prejudgment interest, increasing the already staggering $521 million award to more than $565 million. | ||

| Mr. Dee, they are all greedy. These companies live in an incomprehensible world of litigation where real innovation is rare. |

by the way this decision is potentially much more devastating for open source companies than microsoft. where are they going to find the funds to keep excellent browsers like firefox on the market?

| Come on, guys, end this retarded contest!! You might get some more advertisers by artificially inflating your hits, but your hits were decreasing because the site was starting to suck. All of these stupid articles with Mr. Dee sure to post some completely pointless comment are just making it suck more!! |
