Twisted - Re:"National never had any claim to the patents in question.

What a fool you are. You go to the Intergraph web site and pull up their view of "life as we want it" and offer it as an accepted fact.

If you go to the published Court decisions you will find that National did indeed own the Clipper patents and patent applications and then transferred them to Intergraph.

Re:"The patents didn't exist until 1990-92 - and then were issued to Intergraph, NOT to Fairchild or National."

The Clipper Patents that you mention were patent applications when National purchased Fairchild. The Clipper patent applications were transferred by National to Intergraph and later became issued patents.

The cross license between Intel and National included both patents and patent applications. So the argument was that once National acquired the Clipper patent properties, they became licensed to Intel before they were then transferred to Intergraph.
