Microsoft Wins a Round







Microsoft Wins a Round

Microsoft Wins a Round 03/08/2004 11:21 PM

Just up the road from Fool HQ stands the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office. It's an enormous, homely place where judgments are made that can make or break fortunes. The office recently issued just such an opinion, possibly crippling a small tech company, but in the process saving Microsoft over half a billion dollars and saving Internet users from plenty of headaches.

Apple wins round in lawsuit against
rumour sites
03/14/2005 04:23 PM
A California judge on Friday ruled that Apple has the right to subpoena the records of the three Macintosh sites that recently published details on an unreleased Apple product. Apple filed a civil complaint against unnamed individuals who allegedly stole trade secrets and posted detailed information about an unannounced Apple product last December. "Apple's DNA is innovation and the protection of our trade secrets is crucial to our success," the company said in a statement in December. Santa Clara County Superior Court Judge James P. Kleinberg ruled that Apple's interests in protecting trade secrets outweighed any interest the public may have in the information, according to CNET. "The public has had, and continues to have, a profound interest in gossip about Apple," Kleinberg said. "Therefore, it is not surprising that hundreds of thousands of 'hits' on a Web site about Apple have and will happen. But an interested public is not the same as the public interest."

Some are suggesting that the planned acquisition of SuSE Linux AG by Novell Inc. could reignite an old battle between Novell and Microsoft. Novell owned a competing network operating system for file and print services, which lost market share to Windows in the mid-1990s. It's a blow Novell has struggled to recover from.

Microsoft Wins $4 Million From Spammer


Microsoft Wins $4 Million From Spammer 07/15/2004 08:36 PM
Microsoft has apparently won a $4 million judgment against a spammer. The interesting part, though, is that the legal issue wasn't the spamming, but "trademark infringement, false advertising and cybersquatting." The spam in question apparently advertised a toolbar that claimed to keep Microsoft Windows updated. The article doesn't say what kind of spyware the product actually was (but, you have to assume it was spyware). Though, it may be difficult to collect, Microsoft claims that it's already taken in approximately $54 million from the various spam cases it's been winning. While that's pocket change for Microsoft, that's still a pretty good chunk of change. Maybe there's a business model in really suing spammers after all.
