Microsoft, Lucent battle in huge patent case
,----[ Quote ]
| Microsoft Corp (MSFT.O) argued before an appeals court on Tuesday that its
| Outlook calendar date-picker tool did not infringe an Alcatel-Lucent
| (ALUA.PA) patent and asked for a $358 million jury verdict to be overturned.
|
| The lawsuit is the last remaining after Alcatel-Lucent and Microsoft settled
| other patent fights in December. The case was appealed from a district court
| in San Diego, where a jury ruled that Microsoft did infringe and ordered it
| to pay $358 million, or $511 million including interest.

Alcatel-Lucent Networking Embraces Linux, NAC
,----[ Quote ]
| Sitting inside of every networking device is an operating system. In the case
| of Alcatel-Lucent, that operating system is the Alcatel-Lucent Operating
| System (AOS), which today is getting a significant new upgrade -- even though
| it could be one of the last AOS releases before the company moves it to
| Linux.
|
| The new AOS version 6.3.4 integrates network access control (NAC) directly
| into the operating system, a move that comes as intelligence is becoming
| increasingly part of the network fabric, rather than an add-on.
