Microsoft appeals Eolas decision

Microsoft filed a brief, asking the U.S. Court of Appeals to overturn a $565 million patent infringement judgment. The 174-page document, filed June 3, attacks a U.S. District Court decision that said Microsoft violated a patent, owned by the University of California and its Eolas spinoff. The patent describes how a Web browser can run plug-in applications. Source: ZDNet Yet another step in this Eolas case. If you are not up to snuff on this, please see my previous posts. This Eolas thing is not small, and it is not just Microsoft that would/could be effected by this ruling.
