That's a ridiculous award. Recently, the Supreme Court reminded us that the validity of software patents has not yet been tested there. Here's hoping...

They chose the wrong jury.

Absolutely silly. There is no way that patent was worth anywhere near that. If that patent was worth that, all the patents that go into a computer would be worth millions of trillions of dollars. Pure anti-microsoft bias. The ruling can not stand.

This reminds me of when Micro$oft tried to steal the Disk Defrag technology from Executive Software over a decade ago.
The one bundled in windows named Disk Defragmenter is a much stripped down version and is a mere 10% of the full commercial version that Executive Software sells.

The original suit was not against MS, it was against PC makers. The frogs are merely trying to "RIAA" the U.S. computer industry.
