August 22, 200520 yr Its a stupid patent. Just like BT threatening to sue everyone for hyperlinks a few years back.

August 22, 200520 yr Meh, i can't see this claim holding. "Da mihi castitatem et continentam, sed noli modo"
August 22, 200520 yr Same as above. It's just in the news because it makes a funny read...some Apple iPod revenue going into Microsoft's pockets. Lmao. But yeah..I doubt it'll actually happen. :wink:
August 22, 200520 yr I fail to see the logic in letting a company patent a product they do not own. The legislation is what is at fault, not Apple.
August 22, 200520 yr Author Its not that its stupid it that Microsoft acually attempt to do it. Its a stupid patent. Just like BT threatening to sue everyone for hyperlinks a few years back. lol I never heard about that! ~Dan64AuSince 27 Aug 2002

August 25, 200520 yr Its a stupid patent. Just like BT threatening to sue everyone for hyperlinks a few years back. As you sterotyped there not stupid :) There needed. But, I fail to see the logic in letting a company patent a product they do not own. The legislation is what is at fault, not Apple. ^ Whats the point when Apple already has released products for another compandy to patent on it? It shouldn't of been able to happen and is a shambles to the system. If that actaully holds then someone needs a slap..
August 25, 200520 yr I didnt say all patents were stupid Jammy... Mercifull <3 Suzi "We don't want players to be able to buy their way to success in RuneScape.
