Time Machine-Related Lawsuit




One more trial, I didn't know how much I mi$$ed you, on more trial, let me put my arm$ around you...I hope Timmy T won't mind for the above, but each time I hear about one more trial against a big company like Apple or Microsoft, especially when the reasons aren't really solid, I enjoy a good laugh. Maybe, one day, Adam and Eve will rise from the dead and come to file a lawsuit against Apple, who knows... but until then, Apple must face a new lawsuit, this time related to the Time Machine software.

Lawsuit

This time, it's the first lawsuit involving Time Machine, but the Texan company that filed the complaint, Mirror Worlds, is accusing Apple of infringing on no less than 4 patents! Of those, 3 are closely related to "a document stream operating system", and the last one covers an attached information management system.

Mirror World says Apple knew of these patents since 2001, and now they seek to get an injunction, as well as damages. Since their patents could also apply to other products in the IT world, I wonder why aren't they filing a complaint for any podcaster, any operating system, and so on...

Do I have to add anything else? I guess not... but I hope everything will be solved, because there are much better things to do by everyone rather than filing and answering to silly lawsuits!
