Microsoft contends the Eolas patent is invalid because the technology had already been developed and showcased in a May 1993 demonstration by another inventor, Pei-Yuan Wei.
Isn't this arguement a double edge sword? If MS said that Eolas patent is invalid, that means the patent they are going for is invalid too.
