PatentsIn case it isn't overly obvious already, not all patents are created equal. Lastoffranks touched on this and shed some light on it. NL only benefits from the patents if they can either create "disruptive technology" or monetize the patents. LOTS of companies have LOTS of patents and they are almost worthless. I care Much Much more what advantage the patent creates vs how many patents we have. Hopefully 1 or 2 of them turns out to be a game changer... we could all be happy with that
