Here is my take on Techsearch lawsuit: - Firstly, I share the thinking of many folks that the legal profession in this country stinks but, given that we have what we have, I will hand if off to the Techsearch folks for finding a patent goldmine. - Intel played stupid and dirty (decietful is probably the right word) from the beginning and it looks like it is going to cost them plenty for that. - If intel loses, AMD may also take a hit since Techsearch will probably go after all the CPU guys. - Since, TechSearch is a lawfirm, there is no scope for stuff like cross-licensing here. - I think the whole patent/copyright system is screwed up - Beyond the screwed up patent/copyrght system blame should also go to companies that resort to lawsuits instead of continued innovations (like TI, Intel). I find the whole patent/lawsuit field sickening.
