The FTC's charges against Unocal are similar to a case it is pursuing against Los Altos chip designer Rambus. The FTC charged last year that Rambus violated federal antitrust laws, saying the company hoodwinked an industry group into adopting memory standards that Rambus was secretly patenting. The FTC is trying to force Rambus to give up as much as $100 million in annual royalties. That is in the Mercury News today at the bottom of a Unocal article
