I was going to state that...

 everyone that Licensed with TPL/PTSC bought the MMP package until I did a search of all Licensee, then came up with  2 that did not. Can someone smarter than I tell me why most companies other Denso Wave and DMP Electronics purchased the MMP Portfolio. Why would any of these companies purchase a partial MMP and take the chance of future litigations? Although the court case is only has 2 major patents (148 &336) what happens with the other 6 patents (less 584) that might be an infringement issue?   I guess I am a little perplexed about the licensing aspect of the MMP, would appreciate any help.    The patent portfolio, marketed as the Moore Microprocessor Patent Portfolio, contains intellectual property that is jointly owned by the publicly held Patriot Scientific Corporation and the privately held TPL Group. The portfolio encompasses seven U.S. patents as well as their European and Japanese counterparts. Both TPL and Patriot assert that their jointly owned patents protect techniques used in designing microprocessors, microcontrollers, Digital Signal Processors (DSPs), embedded processors and System-on-Chip (SoC) implementations. Patriot Scientific and TPL believe at least three of the ten patents are elemental to virtually every microprocessor design. The three most significant of these patents are as follows:
  • U.S. 5,809,336: Clocking CPU and I/O Separately
  • U.S. 6,598,148: Use of Multiple Cores and Embedded Memory
  • U.S. 5,784,584: Multiple Instruction Fetch
