Oracle faces billion dollar bill from HP

He'll probably put out an article saying how the judge got it totally wrong and
how it's absolutely certain it will be overturned on appeal.

HP v. Oracle is not related to patents
Authored by: Anonymous on Thursday, August 02 2012 @ 07:06 AM EDT
This is a pure and simple breach of contract case, no patents involved. Florian
is a self proclaimed "patent expert". He would be way outside his own
proclaimed area of expertise if he were to make predictions about US contract
law.

Oracle faces billion dollar bill from HP

Florian's vision appears to suffer from being confined to his own perspective:

I don't mean to condemn Samsung's conduct too much, but it simply shouldn't have done this. Judge Koh told Mr. Quinn that he's preserved the record for a possible appeal. Samsung and it lawyers are obviously afraid of an outcome that exposes Samsung as a copycat, even if such a finding may or may not be reversed on appeal more than a year later. And they thought that drawings according to which Samsung was working on iPhone-like designs well ahead of the launch of the iPhone are a silver bullet that can help dissuade the jury from a finding of willful infringement. But Judge Koh had her reasons to exclude that material, and if Samsung doesn't agree with her reasoning, it needs to take this case to the appeals court, which will inevitably happen anyway.
FOSS Patents, Thursday, August 2, 2012, 'Apple wants ruling in favor of its design patent claims due to Samsung's alleged misconduct', last paragraph.

If I were Apple, this wouldn't entice me to hire Mr. Mueller.
