BETAMAX
OK The BETAMAX ruling

Now this pure speculation as it hasn't gone before judge.

But a contract that violates that ruling may not be valid.

No this opinion only. No ruling has been made and right now in my head a I can probably give a dozen reason for this going one way or the other.

But it is possible that a court could rule the contract void on that specific point. Or it could slap this chip maker for violating the contract.

Point is the argument is valid. That's what I'm trying to get across to you.
