- cduan 17y agoThis is just the lower district court order. Microsoft will almost inevitably appeal the case. In patent cases, the appeals court often takes an active role in scrutinizing the patent and the case, and it often disagrees with the lower courts. So I would hold off on worrying about the verdict too much at this point. What happens on appeal is most likely more important.
