Patriot's legal actions began last summer, shortly after the company was awarded a patent for the way a microprocessor manages the operation of its clock, which controls its running speed. At the time, Patriot said in a statement that the patent "not only bolsters Patriot's licensable microprocessor IP portfolio, but further strengthens the company's patent rights."

Er how can you patent something that's already in widescale use
I think things should be settled in the old fashion way, Intel should pop around to Patriot, with Sony, Toshiba, etc and give them a damn good kicking. When they've finished they could pop along to SCO
