InformationWeek's spin on the Hitachi lawsuit

From InformationWeek BetweenTheLines

Storage powerhouse EMC sued Hitachi Data Systems last week over
software patent infringement, a tactic it said it turned to after
four years of trying to settle the claims out of court. The suit
may reflect current market conditions. In 1998, EMC was the
leader in data-replication software with its SRDF product. Since
then, Hitachi has made significant gains with its equivalent
TrueCopy software. HDS wouldn't comment, but a user of both
systems says it doesn't bode well for EMC. "Where's this market
going when vendors resort to lawsuits to generate revenue?" he
asks. "This will probably end up turning out very badly for EMC."
