The Sun patent is only valid until it holds up in a patent
court. I believe that it can be argued on any of several fronts.
One is that it is obvious using the existing technology of the
times, which is grounds for not granting (or voiding) patents.
THe other would be that it was done and documented prior to the
patent. Personally, I have documentation that it was discussed
here at Fortune five years ago, and I haven't even tried to
look any harder than that. Does anyone know when the patent
disclosure was filed for the Sun MMU patent?
Aw well, I knew I should have filed for those ideas I had,
using PALs to decode address spaces, using ROMs as clocked state
machines, using memory to store information in.....
