The true fallacy of the good judge's logic is that he seems to believe that it
is up to his court to adjudicate what constitutes a "rand rate."
It is beyond his jurisdiction to do so. Judges and courts of law have no
business setting licensing fees or any other prices.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

I think I'll go test drive a Ferrari.
When the Ferrari dealer tells me the price, I'll say: "That's too much!',
and drive away with it.
Then I'll buy a judge and sue the dealer, so I can keep the Ferrari without
paying for it. Because, after all, according to me, "the price the dealer
asked me to pay was unreasonable".
Should work out fine.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

There's this little thing called triple damages for willful infringement.

>They can simply wait to be sued and may many years down the road have to pay
some money.
You have too much faith in the intrinsic goodness of companies. Much simpler,
easier, and faster to simply terminate with extreme prejudice, the entire board
of directors of any company that violates one's patents.
Also cheaper and easier to terminate with extreme prejudice the entire board of
directors of any company that files a lawsuit against a company, alleging patent
infringement.
This is simple economics 101.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]

"...However as I understand the facts here Microsoft never even made a
counter offer, so there is no record of negotiation to judge whether Microsoft
was acting in good faith or not...."
By avoiding a counter offer, MS is refusing to 'negotiate in good faith'. An
absurd counter offer ("Your Honor, we tried to negotiate...") would
indicate a lack of good faith. MS darn well knows what a reasonable counter
offer would be, they just don't want to make it. They, like Apple, want every
street to be One Way, towards them.[ Reply to This | Parent | # ]
