Big companies that can't smell very well and have piles of Cobol-esque Java [The Java Programming Language (tm)] code running on things like AS/400's will probably just pay whatever patenting licensing fees they need to in order to carry on with Java as long as they possibly can.
- drdew 16y agoIBM is already a Java licensee and the Java used on the AS/400 is licensed to users from Sun via IBM. This should be totally obvious to anyone who has ever seen the JavaTM logo anywhere.
