[net.unix-wizards] DEC vs. SI

sysred (06/24/82)

We (Penn State Computer Science Department) are considering the
purchase of a Systems Industries disk system with an SBI/MBA
(non-UNIBUS) interface.  Our legal department has blocked the purchase
due to concern about the patent infringement suit brought by DEC
against SI.  We would appreciate hearing from anyone else with similar
experiences (i.e. static from legal departments) and what was done to
solve the problem.
