If rangeCheck costs Google money and the test files don't
earn money, aren't the resulting "profits" negative?
I suppose Google could concede a portion of those to
Oracle...

The problem, in my view, is that judges
can be a bit intimidated by famous lawyers,
and they can enjoy a show. But the real
problem is the judge still seems to think
that Boies Schiller is a normal law firm
as to what it will and won't do. His surprise
that they would ask for millions in infringer's
profits, for example, tells me that he truly
doesn't get it at all, how they roll. He
thought there was no financial significance
to his ruling on the test files. And he
thought it didn't matter is he let them go
for infringer's profits. What he has done,
however, is give Oracle a chance to string this
along for years and years, while the infringer's
profits issue works its way to the US Supreme
Court, in Boies Schiller's dreams, if they
don't get the money and a big payday if they
do.
It's a law firm born for Ellison, who also
doesn't care, I gather, if the whole world
hates him and his company.
