When PTSC started this proceeding they notified 150 companies they where next to be sued. At the last share holders meeting JW stated some 7 to 15 companies had already contacted PTSC to avoid court. If the case continued with TPL the litigation could have gone on for years causing PTSC to loose credibility as well as time on the patent (Patent Expires 2015). This move was a very intelligent move on behalf of the shareholders. TPL is much tougher then JW and I am sure they got a much larger settlement from INTC then we did from AMD.
In today’s news release they alluded to the fact that we would be receiving some type of payment. I am sure we will get an idea in a upcoming SEC filing. What ever amount we get will be just the tip of the iceberg now that AMD and INTC have both validated the 336 patent. I would expect in the next few months a large amount of companies will be joining the ranks of depositors in PTSC/TPL bank accounts. If they are able to bring in just 30 million to PTSC in the next 12 months which is miniscule compared to what is out their, this company stock will be valued at .60 per share at a minimum. Those who want to want to cry because we didn`t get to take INTC to court are crying over nothing. INTC is only one of 100`s of companies that apparently use this patent.
This is only my opinion, and I don`t know nuttin.
