FTA: "Notably missing from the defendants' list are Microsoft, in which Mr. Allen remains a major investor"
- jacquesm 16y agoThat was the point. Wonder if microsoft has a deal with Allen or if he just doesn't want to sue the company he has a stake in. This could easily be spun as Allen as the attack dog against microsofts competition.
- jggube 16y agoIf I had to guess, it's because he doesn't want to sue a company he has a stake in. That's like suing yourself. Patent and intellectual property copyright is a funny thing; the owner can enforce (or try to get it enforced) when they feel like it. They usually let it go when it's to their benefit.
