Intergralaction by: ptnewell 10/6/00 3:45 pm Msg: 169024 of 169047 Lawsuits are filed and fought for many reasons. Of course one has to allege something, and it is best to make it sound frightening to the other side. I suspect Micron, Hyundai, and Infineon were hoping to bleed Rambus with multiple suits to the point where they would accept a lesser deal. Besides, all 3 fought TXN (Texas Instruments) for years, and lost. But I think they will find that Rambus doesn't play as nice as TI did. RMBS is trying to make it clear that they will play a much harder game. The game the Dramurai are used to is "tails I win, heads we draw." The result of losing isn't much worse than just signing a license agreement to begin with. But it looks like Rambus has made it clear that it has several ways of upping the severity of this strategy of automatically fighting royalties. I hope RMBS sticks to its stated rule of shutting down adjudicated infringers.
