| maxolasersquad | B&N is asking the justice department to look into Microsoft's patent trolling behavior. http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2011-11-08/barnes-noble-urges-u-s-regulators-to-probe-microsoft-on-mobile-patents.html | 14:02 |
| zoopster | funny thing is someone wrote an article about MS's behavior of late...if they cannot copy successfully they will attempt to litigate a win | 14:45 |
| maxolasersquad | With the success of the Zune and Windows Mobile it's just about the only thing they have left. | 15:00 |
| maxolasersquad | Like the thugs in Mexico resorting to kidnappings and extortions. | 15:00 |
| zoopster | success of windows mobile? um...it's not successful | 15:33 |
| zoopster | oh | 15:33 |
| zoopster | nevermind | 15:33 |
| zoopster | misread it | 15:34 |
| zoopster | yes...agree maxolasersquad | 15:34 |
| mianosm | Apple is the same way, can't 'innovate' anymore - better litigate! | 15:37 |
| mianosm | Funny that food/clothes can be copied for functionality/preference, but other things can not. :( | 15:37 |
| zoopster | mianosm: heh...even food copying is being litigated these days | 15:45 |
| mianosm | zoopster: really? I heard about the honeycrisp apples deal, but there is other stuff going on too now? | 15:47 |
| zoopster | mianosm: like this one...http://www.organicconsumers.org/Monsanto/farmerssued.cfm around genetic engineering | 15:49 |
| zoopster | haven't seen much recently, but there was a movie made about it a few years back | 15:50 |
| maxolasersquad | zoopster: Food Inc http://www.foodincmovie.com/ | 16:31 |
| DammitJim | +1 maxolasersquad | 16:40 |
| DammitJim | the problem I have after watching that documentary is that it's very hard to make ends meet because of the price differences | 16:40 |
| maxolasersquad | DammitJim: The massive subsidies that go into "mainstreem" food do make it hard to buy other stuff. | 19:16 |
| maxolasersquad | We do it where we can. | 19:16 |
| DammitJim | that's right... | 19:17 |
