Apple appeals against Opti's patent victory

[god_43]

Hardware firm Apple will appeal against a decision in a Texas district court granting Opti's patent on pre-snooping was valid. A court awared Opti $21 million earlier this week.

Opti sued Apple on January 16 2007, alleging that Apple had breached the patent it owns on Predictive Snooping of Cache Memory for Master-Initiated Accesses.

That, Opti had said, relates to its US patent 6,405,291.

great, another patent squatter.

not every1 who has patents is a troll or squatter, this isnt like rambus claiming all memory is their IP or the people who sued since they had a patent for a chip on a pcb with resistors that connected power from separate pcb to the chip


and the way that apple sues any1 with a white box with electronics with the biased norther CA courts and juries, i think its funny that some1 got them

Don't forget, this isn't people suing each other, this is a company that made an idea, and Apple is using that idea without paying for it. This is a game for big boys and big girls, and is about one thing, making money.
