>>I don't think anyone should be able dictate how IOM must build their product. << How Ayn Randish of you. But seriously. Court rulings are replete with verdicts where the law CAN dictate how a company makes its products. The most recent example? MICROSOFT. This huge corporation was of course told that they must keep separate the Windows OS from the Internet Explorer browser. Microsoft insists that the two programs are actually one and the same. One point of view holds that Microsoft should be able to do whatever they want with their products. However, "What should be's" and how reality actually unfolds are often very different. This is why I think Iomega will lose the court cases involving Zip Patents and copyrights both here and abroad. The Sherman Antitrust Act may be invoked by Nomai. If the redesigned Zip drives (as well as laptop models) are proven to be altered for the sole purpose of excluding a competitor's disc, then Nomai has a good case IMO.
