[Neverending]

LL- The only way I see the 774 patent having a future in above nuisance value license fees (if that) is IF you can sue a company for infringing on PART of your patent. I would assume that to mean infringing on certain specific claims. The problem for EDIG is the "sole memory" no RAM language is in the same claim that the microprocessor device control amended language is in (claim 1). I assume microprocessor control of a devices functions is important and patentable because the examiner in the reexam allowed it over prior art Sharp and Kimura which do use RAM. SO microprocessor control seems to be a unique feature in itself. On the other hand maybe the 774 is simply microprocessor control of a device with no RAM because the patent would never have been granted in the first place unless the investor either fought the examiner on the RAM issue or amended the patent to eschew RAM...which he ultimately choose to do. OR am I totally off base here.
