Of course I'm old! anyways "qualify as legal patents". Of course they are legal patents but I believe Intel must try to show that the 4 patents don't hold water. What will be interesting and if HDC can prove that Intel patents 7,146,050 & 7,174,040 are infringing this might be enough to bring them to the table to cough up royalties.
I need time to study the claims against Intel hey I'm still back on page 57 Count 2 but just love what I see within area 100. "Direct Infringement" involving patent 959.
