AFUA visited Thendic-France : Comment 472 of 629 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Samface on 28-Apr-2002 05:03 GMT | In reply to Comment 453 (Frodon): Did you read the fine print at the bottom of that case? I guess not, read this:
"The A-Max precedent is important to anyone who may be required to defend the development and subsequent release of an emulator. It established the legality of an unauthorized emulator for a proprietary system so long as it does not infringe upon the original vendor's intellectual property rights."
May I highlight: "...so long as it does not infringe upon the original vendor's intellectual property rights."? Well, that is exactly what this is about, would you deny that using the AmigaROM for making a Amiga compatible OS like MorphOS, announced as an Amiga next-generation PowerPC OS, isn't infringing on Amiga Inc.'s IP? May I point out that this is probably the reason for why Amiga Inc. will prosecute them on "parasitic" marketing grounds? |
