Intel Loses Bid to Overturn Ruling on Chip Technology Intel Corp. lost a bid for a rehearing before a federal appeals court that ruled the firm had no license to use Intergraph Corp.'s computer-chip technology in its Pentium product. Intergraph is suing for royalties on Intel's profitable Pentium line, which Intergraph says incorporates technology it owns. The Intel Pentium line tripled computing speed when introduced in 1993, and now includes three faster versions. The appeals court ruled March 1 in favor of Intergraph in the patent dispute, allowing Intergraph's suit to continue. Intergraph officials contend California-based Intel may have made as much as $100 billion on the Pentium, Pentium II and Pentium III chips. Huntsville-based Intergraph claims all three of those chips contain technology from the Clipper chip, for which Intergraph owns the patent. The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit in Washington denied Intel's request for a rehearing Monday. Intel spokesman Chuck Mulloy said Intel hasn't decided whether to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court. The case now goes back to U.S. District Court in Birmingham for a hearing April 16. - from today's wsj online
