Dunno that ya can be sued for just being lousy can ya?? That would be funny.
Never used their products myself so wouldn't know.
Back on the subject at hand though.. I suppose they do have the right to question and take action but they are going straight for the most money they can get by law. Just shows greed to me.
this is STUPID if they get judge judy, they'd get thrown out instantly 
but back to real life, because they prolly wont, its a stupid claim, beside's, all those company's when added together have some serious financial weight, and big name lawyers, so therfore....they must win,...i mean...really...
if ultra win this, it will just...
its just taking the
, and it might take some of those smaller companys to breaking point financially?
not a good thing...

A patents a patent and if they hold it they have every right to get damages. If the companies producing modular PSUs did not research enough and spend enough money on finding existing patents, thats just plain stupid. So what if they have waited, the offending companies shouldn't have done it (if there is a solid patent in place) in the first place.
You cant possibly say oh thats stupid, its what patents are for. Ultra have just as much right to enforce it as you do if you invent something.

Well that first link has nothing really... Also the point is even if it broke around a week ago it seems quite a few people reading it here hadn't seen it elsewhere so in that case is still worth posting.
Not up to me about the other link either so yeah wait for one of the higher beings

Na it just didn't show up on any of the sites I check for news is all until today.
As for in general... Still trying to squeeze as many as I can in between work, life and sleep.
