Microsoft and T3 backing PSI



The Register has now picked up the story.

http://www.channelregister.co.uk/2007/11/29/t3_wants_piece_of_psi_lawsuit/

I've collected the court filings together by date - they're linked from
http://www.isham-research.co.uk/t3t_vs_ibm.html

The date for T3's motion to be heard may be 10 January 2008.

There are little hints (e.g., in T3's Memorandum, para 2 of Background) that suggest T3 and
PSI were perhaps planning to partition the market - T3 below 350 MIPS and PSI above.

IBM's 17 August amended claim is heavily redacted, but PSI's responses to some of the redacted
points give clues about the content of the redacted paragraphs. Not good news for the
Hercules crowd if IBM wins some of the points.
