Patent parasites sue Microsoft over Xbox Live

,----[ Quote ]
| Peter Hochstein and Jeffrey Tenenbaum (pricks) once patented a method
| of "communicating live while playing the same video game in separate
| locations" and have been milking their "idea" since 1994. In 2004, they went
| after both Sony and Microsoft, and in April of this year, scored a settlement
| with the former over the PS2's online gaming network. Now they want more, and
| are focusing on Xbox Live.
