I was surprised to see this post when it was first made. I thought I might put it here to show I'm not the only crack-pot in the building.

shavisirons - You mentioned, "Yo and others here, with their techno knowledge, seem to think VCSY's patents hold the key to revolutionizing IP, or whatever, as we know it."
Shav, the moment VCSY announced a computer program application in an arbitrary framework that would separate Content, Form and Function of a computer application so that each may be accessed or modified separately I knew a Software/Internet revolution was coming based on the VCSY concept. This program was patented by VCSY and is now the '744 patent. If I had never heard of Portuno or Robert or if the Raging Bull VCSY board had never existed the result for me would still be the same. I've never been a programmer but I did work In IBM Field Engineering for 22 years and must have absorbed more than I realized. At least I absorbed enough to recognize unbridled genius when I saw it.
I am not surprised that the revolution is at hand. I am only surprised that it took so long to get here. Six years ago I assumed that in two years the old techniques would be replaced by the new. I didn?t know that VCSY could not start selling the product back then as doing so would establish a very low value for the product and get it out into the public forum before VCSY had patented control of it. VCSY executives did know that they had to contain their product until the patent was approved. Only after patent approval could they start selling licenses for it. Meanwhile, the thieves did break in and steal.
The bright spot here is that the patent is approved, the product has never been sold by VCSY and the Company has apparently been watching Microsoft for years surreptitiously developing their own programs using VCSY?s product.
My own unbridled enthusiasm for the ?744 product and other VCSY products has caused me to go totally overboard in buying VCSY shares at the exclusion of all else, especially in the last three years. When Microsoft tries to steal VCSY products they are directly stealing from the value of my stock portfolio. They are stealing from me.
Microsoft stealing from other small companies is nothing new. I?ve seen several battles go to court with Microsoft eventually paying off. I?m confident Microsoft will be told by the court to pay VCSY for license and use of the ?744 patent for both past and future use of it.
Being in the Eastern Texas Federal Court does not harm VCSY?s position but it should not make any difference which district court the lawsuit is in. VCSY has an extremely strong case, strong management and one of the strongest Intellectual Property Attorneys in the world.
Best wishes
