Gateway has won its appeal before the International Trade Commission over a parallel-port patent fight with Hewlett-Packard.
The case, which will be remanded back to a lower court for further proceedings, centers around whether PC maker Gateway infringed on HP patents that involve legacy circuitry for parallel-port printer technology. In its ruling Thursday, the ITC determined Gateway did not engage in a "literal infringement" of the patents in question, Gateway said.
"Our history as a company makes it clear we respect the intellectual property of others, and that we expect others to respect ours," Michael Tyler, Gateway's chief legal officer, said in a statement.
I hate to think about how much money is being wasted arguing over technologies that are no longer used. Why don't HP and Gateway save their court/lawyer fees and invest in new innovative technology?
