Microsoft sues Salesforce
Posted: 25 May 2010, 09:27
The Pantent Laden strategy goes on. Microsoft is suing a competitor in the cloud area. Of course it did not help that Salesforce.com hired a former Microsoft director. Here are the reasons:
* “method and system for mapping between logical data and physical data”
* “system and method for providing and displaying a web page having an embedded menu”
* “method and system for stacking toolbars in a computer display”
* “automated web site creation using template driven generation of active server page applications”
* “aggregation of system settings into objects”
* “timing and velocity control for displaying graphical information”
* “method and system for identifying and obtaining computer software from a remote computer”
* “system and method for controlling access to data entities in a computer network”
Are you kidding
Can we all be sued for our web page layout now?
Why not be honest about it Microsoft?
Sue because they are existing and working.
