Microsoft v. AT&T

edit
  • ... that in Microsoft v. AT&T, copying and installing software abroad onto foreign-manufactured computers were not considered as patent infringement under U.S. Patent Law?

Created/expanded by Wulingqi (talk). Nominated by Dc.to.daylight (talk) at 03:13, 13 November 2012 (UTC)

  • 5x expansion has not been done in enough time. Thine Antique Pen (talk) 12:23, 13 November 2012 (UTC)
  • Thine Antique Pen is correct on the technicality. Both editor and nominator are newbies to Wikipedia. The article is about a case decided by the United States Supreme Court. As an FYI, in case anyone can find cause to give this a second look:
  • Wulingqi is a new editor as of September 2012
  • Article created by Jmcneill2 on May 1, 2007 as a one-sentence stub
  • July 31, 2012, article had 831 characters of readable prose
  • 13.65X expansion by Wulingqi on October 17, 2012, first day of expanding, brought the article to 11,349 characters of readable prose
  • Wulingqi has continued to improve the article since that date
  • Article currently has 12,019 characters of readable prose
