"IBM's non-compete was probably under the laws of NY (where much of IBM's operations are located) or Deleware (where I'm guessing IBM is incorporated), so Cali law probably doesn't apply. I don't really know New York's or Deleware's law non-competes, but generally they are allowed if they are reasonable in scope (I'm very surprised that California outlawed them completely... that seemed like a good way of ensuring that companies will flee from the state)."

@ RijilV: The SDNY court would care (and would have to follow) about the California court's decision if IBM's non-compete fell under California law. But, as I said above, it probably doesn't]]>Oct 31st 2008 11:31AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/Oct 31st 2008 12:18PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/Oct 31st 2008 11:25AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/http://www.engadget.com/2008/10/31/ibm-slaps-apple-with-a-lawsuit-for-recruiting-top-chip-designer/

It's sad really. One of the greatest technology companies of all time has been reduced to suing individuals because they no longer want to work there.
