Microsoft bites back at Lucent
Remember that quarrel between Microsoft and Lucent Technologies over MPEG technology a while back? Well they're at it again (as if it had ever stopped). This time, however, Microsoft is going on the offensive.
With a bold war cry, they countersued Lucent. We suspect there was some mild name-calling involved, but regardless, the allegations state that Lucent is the one violating a number of copyrights this time. Microsoft also says that the other decoding technology patents were invalid.
How long will this slap-fest continue?
