They had demanded $400 million for the patent in suit which is a circuit used in computer processors to predict what supposedly will be used next. — PING!

Assuming the award holds up, since the University of Wisconsin-Madison is a publicly funded institution, some of that money should be returned to the State of Wisconsin.
Then some of the money should be returned to the federal government, who funded the research in the first place.
But neither of those things will happen, that award will probably become play money for the professorial class in Madison to squander as they please on expensive toys.

Jurors deliberated for about 3-1/2 hours before returning the verdict in the closely watched case in federal court in Madison, Wisconsin. Hey, Montel was on.
