wanna_bmw, Re: <Let's say that Intel was planning on launching a chipset, and VIA claimed that Intel had patents of theirs, and publicly urged motherboard manufacturers not to use Intel's products to avoid legal action. Wouldn't you consider it a good idea for these manufacturers to halt production until the licensing can be cleared up in court?>

In light of biz.yahoo.com

(Intergraph Sues Intel for Patent Infringement in Intel's Next Generation Chip )

Would you think it prudent for Intergraph to publicly urge PC makers not to use Intel's products to avoid legal action?

How about after you read:

In March, the Court of Appeals, which has exclusive jurisdiction over all patent-related cases, ruled that Intel does not have a right to use Intergraph’s patented Clipper technology. Intel had petitioned for a rehearing by the Court.

Just curious.
