- Sounds like a combinational patent to me

"This seems like a pretty good one to me. these guys were clearly way out in front. Honestly, how many people even had a computer, much less one with a modem in 1985. Maybe Mathew Broderick in war games. "
Quite a few, which is why modems and BBS had made it to the movies....
So they patented the common thing of the day, now twenty years later they hope nobody can remember/prove that there were subscription BBS's, i.e. eCommerce.
Geez, and the EU Commission wants to legalise software & Business process patents. Why? - Posted by: Nigel Johnstone Posted on: 05/04/04 You are currently: a Guest | Members login | Terms of Use
