No, the position is that since PEOPLE have been using the
process described in the patent for thousands of years,
putting it on a computer is not patentable.

Such silliness, an airplane is a physical invention. While the patent being
discussed is an algorithm on a a general purpose computer (an invention used to
solve and implement mathematical problems). Man was never able to fly till a
device was created. Perhaps, if avians had invented the airplane it would not
have been patentable because of its obviousness, but the other hand it could
have been useful for penguins and other flightless birds.
What!

You can patent the invention - the plane - at the time of invention. But you are
not talking about patenting a novel machine. You want to patent the use of an
existing standard machine for an existing standard purpose. [ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
