Herb, Frivolous is almost unheard of. These guys have a case, it just is a very poor one, IMO. If I understand colorsynch, there was a lot of prior art, and Apple was involved in a lot of it. These medical guys were late to the program, and don't reference the graphic arts stuff as prior art in their patent. I haven't read the case, or their patent- so this is second hand. It's also a crap shoot in any law suit- but I think Apple is on solid ground. Doesn't mean thay are not right but could lose. Web
