Here are a few quotes from the past. Some stuff worth remembering. Opty

<From the time the patents were issued, the company estimates that over $150 billion dollars worth of microprocessors have made use of Patriot Scientific's technology." >

<The company believes that significant segments of the electronics industry are currently benefiting from technology owned by Patriot Scientific and that microprocessors operating at speeds above 110 - 120 MHz are in violation of portions of Patriot Scientific's patent portfolio. >

<Patriot Scientific Corp. has filed complaints against Matsushita, Sony, Fujitsu, Toshiba and NEC seeking damages in excess of several hundred million dollars. >

<Moore & Fish knew what they had and wrote the text body of U.S. Patent 5,809,336 in great detail, leaving no stone unturned and closing all loopholes to the best of their knowledge. Intel tried to skirt around this patent by using the pipeline technique for instruction set rather than PTSC's stack approach, yet they did use PTSC's high performance, low cost microprocessor system having a variable speed system clock. Without this fundamental element clearly patented by PTSC long before Intel or anybody else used it, there simply would not be RISC microprocessors operating above 110MHz today. That is, other than Patriots Ignite family of microprosessors.>
