about time. don't let anyone do ridiculous patents. regular shapes, colors, etc.

Nvidia's lawsuit is related to both the GPU hardware and the required software to drive it. Their patents are completely legit (since they acquired 3dfx) and they should be paid royalties for the ideas they own.

I'm sure the USPTO is still so in bed with Apple that they'll give them the patent for "inflating the value of a product through marketing" if someone inside decided to apply for it.
 


i was speaking about the patent system in general sorry. not about nvidia
