Star Apple's Interface Held to the Fire in Suit
Linked by Thom Holwerda on Sun 22nd Apr 2007 16:29 UTC, submitted by BluenoseJake
Law and Order Little-known intellectual property agency IP Innovation LLC and its parent Technology Licensing Corporation this week became the latest to claim that Apple had abused a patent they hold. Filed April 18th in a US district court in Marshall, Texas the four-page formal complaint purports that Apple has engaged in 'willful and deliberate' infringement of a computer control patent by selling its current Tiger operating system. On a related note, Microsoft has similar problems.

Except that -instead of pushing for a more sensible patent system- they will be trying to push for a(ny) kind of reform in which THEY are the ONLY ones to benefit from the patent system (especially for what I like to call the "pestering-power" of patents).
