Another Lawsuit For Sony?

When will the madness end for Sony? Seems things are going from bad to worse and more and more lawsuits and legal battles are cropping up all over the place. This time its against Sony Corp of America by an American company called Parallel Processing who say the PS3 processor infringes on an existing patent, and demands the "impounding and destruction" of all of Sonys infringing processors.

We will have to see about that, things arent looking good at moment with all these lawsuits and credibility bashings they are getting.

Well they sound quite serious about it, i dont think they will get them to destroy the processor as thats an absurd idea. They might get paid off like the rest but thats more money Sony cant afford to be losing right now.

Re: Another Lawsuit For Sony?

Sony might have the best lawyers, but its the truth that matters. What will happen to Sony, who knows, but if Sony's processor really did infringe on an existing patent...they should have to pay some price.

Even though i'm not a Sony kind of guy, I think the buyers of the PS3 should not have their money wasted....whatever happens.
 
Re: Another Lawsuit For Sony?

If it goes through, and they have to destroy all those components, I seriously hope someone gets that on tape.

Or better yet, me personally pressing the "destroy" button on whatever gigantic machine they have to destroy all those processors.
 
Re: Another Lawsuit For Sony?

My opinion was always Sony sux they have pulled **** for as long as I can remember they broke off from Nintendo made faulty batterys and crap-tackular expensive Laptops and terrible consoles I just don't like them period.
 
Re: Another Lawsuit For Sony?

Well, I just looked this up, and Parallell Processors filed the patent in 1991, and since it was filed before 1995, it expires after 17 years, meaning that in 2008, they wouldn't have a case. However, Sony's design does seem to use this patented technology, so Sony really could be in a pile of **** :hmm:

From the way it was worded it seems that not all PS3's use this technology...
