This is similar to Art Buchwald vs. Paramount and Eddie Murphy of a few years ago. Buchwald pitched an idea to Murphy about a Prince who comes to America. The deal fell apart. Two years later Murphy writes a similar script and makes Coming to America. Paramount lost, but all Buchwald got was 1 million dollars which didn't pay legal fees. I think that was based on what he would have been paid if they had given him credit. In Hollywood they are very careful about opening packages because of this. Once they look at something it can be used against them. Intel saw DEC's Alpha plans. Grove made comments to the Wall Street Journal about how intel doesn't come up with anything new they just take things from others. Intel is guilty in any court with a jury unless I'm missing something. The only question is the settlement. Not likely to be too severe since Intel is so important, but could add up. Also, remember what happened to Murphy's career after that trial. Not good publicity for Intel. I hope Grove doesn't drive any cross dressing men home from now on.
