More FUD and extortion. Do you even comprehend the limitations of the "PVS/SGI Source Code License"? Its is not an open license for all versions of VDK2, end of story. The problem with Dimension is they refuse to accept the fact that the original ISI/DFI was a restricted license for a specific hardware platform, IBM PVS super computers.

Dimension is burying itself going down this path. How can litigation (in 2002 or 2013) involving a specific source code license between ISI and DFI in 2000 possibly effect previous licenses between ISI and TMMI formalized in the 1990's for other hardware platforms? TMMI emerged from bankruptcy in 1996 owning these licenses in exchange for millions of dollars paid to ISI.

I repeat, TMMI was not interested in using the "PVS/SGI Source Code License" because it did not have expensive and now obsolete IBM PVS super computers. Instead TMMI is using VDK2.1 for Intel computers originally licensed in 1994.

Having said this, it was worth TMMI challenging Dimension's claim to the useless "PVS/SGI Source Code License" to stop the brazen interference by Dimension in TMMI business affairs. There never was a legal merger between DFI and DFMI. As of now, the "PVS/SGI Source Code License" is worthless but Dimension is still using it as a thorn in TMMI's side. And now, claims for 4,000,0000,0000 TMMI shares! When will this insane nonsense ever end?

"Not to mention, with a little investigation, they would have known they didn't own it (per the 2002 Ventura County courts)"

Its funny you mention that, Mr. TS counter sued in 2003 and won a default judgment for $148,000 that was never paid. Instead the counter party ran off and started a daisy chain of companies he passed the "non transferable" DFI/DFMI "PVS/SGI Source Code License" through. Just 10 days after the judgement he had a band new company registered to play hide and seek with the license. The only problem, the legal merger between DFI and DFMI was never consummated. According to California law DFI still owns the "PVS/SGI Source Code License". TMMI should take this litigation back to California just to teach Dimension a lesson.

Also, I might add Mr. TS was neither an officer or director of TMMI at that time, so your insinuation he was ordered to hand over all copies of the code (implying everything from ISI) is nonsense. How could Mr. TS possibly have been ordered to hand over source code licensed to a third party company, licenses that had nothing to do with the original ISI/DFI deal, "PVS/SGI Source Code License" for IBM PVS super computers? The 2002 litigation had nothing to do with TMMI's ISI licenses from the 1990's.

Mr. TS was never ordered to hand over TMMI's property.

Please stop with the FUD.

"Too much BS to wade through here"

No BS here, I think we all know who the real source of BS is. Its strange how some people stubbornly refuse to accept the truth.

"per the 2002 Ventura County courts"

Per 2003 default judgement, will Mr. TS ever be paid the $148,000 owed to him by you know who?

"TMM promised DFI, then DFMI, preferred shares (such as the North Star Ventures deal) if they would finance and pay TMM's bills. They did and the loyal shareholders were screwed royally."

Which "loyal shareholders? The ones that hijacked the company of its fractal code and then shamelessly announced it on the Raging Bull board in early 2000?

Not much has changed.

Talking about BS, do you remember this?

As a director of DFMI let me set the record straight. We own sole rights to the fractal video codec based on the patents originally held by Iterated Systems of Atlanta, GA. We are not in negotiations with TMMI and have no intention of doing so.

Please contact TMMI for any information about them.
