    XBOX and W7 suspended by court in Germany (and it's not Apr 1)


    Posted: 02 May 2012
    Hi there
    I couldn't believe this when I read it -- can Lawyers really believe W7 infringes Motorola's patents.

    BBC News - Motorola wins Xbox and Windows 7 ban in Germany

    Motorola's phones used to be brilliant but like Nokia they've lost their way -- this type of action is probably the last thrashing tail of an old Dinosaur.

    Can you really see W7 not being sold in Germany -- people will just go across the border to Holland or Belgium. Can't believe some of the antics of these Lawyers !!.

    Cheers

    That sucks hopefully Microsoft and Motorola get that issue resolved and it doesn't start affecting other countries because I will stand up against Motorola if they try to ban Microsoft products in the US.

    Microsoft comes out with the best Windows software ever and what does Motorola do? Sues them. Are they all a bunch of apples over there or something?

    This seems appropriate.

    Where am I, and how did I get in this handbasket?

    I know this is a bit off topic, but this shows that the politicians/lawyers in Germany are a bit stupid.

    These court cases make me laugh...they are like a bunch of children fighting over things. I am sure they all do it just to annoy each other :)

    Hi there
    probably the most sensible comment I've read for AGES.

    Honestly if I were to see some of these Lawyers crossing the road my car would have a sudden case of "Brake Failure".

    (Legal BTW in Europe. Sufficient Case law exists that quite clearly says provided your car has got its annual inspection certificate then sudden Brake Failure is not the drivers fault !!!!).

    Cheers
