Our law professor makes the classes very interesting though the stream may sound boring. He brings a theme each class and wears a tie according to the theme. The theme of Antitrust discussion class was Monopoly.
Here is the interesting part. One of the bullet items was the 2004 antitrust case raised by Japanese fair trade commission alleging that Non-Assertion Provision in Microsoft's contracts with Japanese OEMs . The case in point is: Microsoft signed contracts with a provision to not sue MS for any future infringement.
(You can google and get more details. Anyway here is my analysis of this issue)
If MS get some supplies from a Sony subsidiary, they can not sue MS for infringing, say PlayStation related patents. Oh!
Prof's theme was very apt, right??
Law stream is one of my favorite. I am learning a lot of new things which I have never paid attention to.
