11/27   CalMail has been down for a few days (hardware failure and database
        corruption -- sounds like fun!) and is starting to come back online.
        Looks like they're planning to outsource all campus mail to either
        Google Apps or Microsoft 365 as part of Operational Excellence.

4/28    Win 3.1 was more widely adopted than Win 3.0.  Win XP (5.1) was more
        widely adopted than Win 2k (5.0).  Now it looks like Win 7 (6.1) is
        going to be more widely adopted than Vista (6.0).  Is this a trend on
        Microsoft x.0 versions being bad?
        \_ duh.
        \_ "more widely adopted" ... well... what are you basing these numbers

12/2    IE usage down but still kicking the majority ass. Chrome is also
        rising up high, almost at the Safari level. Firefox isn't
        doing badly either. Sorry Opera, you had your chance.

The suit charges Microsoft and Apple with infringement of United States patent number 6,557,054. Specifically, BTG asserts that Microsoft's and Apple's operating systems, as well as Microsoft's Office products, incorporate the patented technologies. BTG, which has the exclusive worldwide licensing rights to the patent, is represented by the law firm of Finnegan, Henderson, Farabow, Garrett, and Dunner, LLP The suit asks for unspecified damages for past infringing activity and an injunction against future use of the technology. This move follows Microsoft's and Apple's delay in entering into licensing agreements with BTG on commercially reasonable terms. The 6,557,054 patent, granted by the US Patent and Trademark Office on Apr. While seeking to create new methods and products to enhance the usefulness of online computing, Reisman conceived and created his inventions. He sought out the assistance of BTG in 1998 to help protect his inventions through patenting. The patent is owned by Teleshuttle Technologies LLC with BTG as the exclusive worldwide licensee.
