I remember it I think Lotus lost the suit. They could not copyright text commands I think.
It was used against Apple but Apple won because their GUI was different from Xerox.
500 is a lot for Lotus 123 and $100 clones sure look tempting.
- JudasGoat 8y agoWikipedia says Lotus won that case." In February 1990, the case went to court and on June 28, the court ruled that Paperback Software's product, by copying Lotus 1-2-3's look and feel menu interface, violated Lotus's copyright.[10] Osborne stepped down from Paperback Software the same year."
- orionblastar 8y agoOk thanks I was mistaken. There was also a Procomm suit.
