[QUOTE="Charlie McGee, post: 115692, member: 6656"] Re: New Midas M32 Console Jason, you're right, but in this case there were over 3 independant validations of Behringer's theory. Not just the court, but also more than one expert witness and a U.S. patent examiner who granted Behringer their own patent. Who do you believe should settle a dispute like this? Seriously, if all of the emotions are stripped from this matter here's what we have: Peavey thought JR's patent was copied. Behringer thought that they had an original invention. A judge, expert witnesses, and a US patent examiner all agreed with Behringer's position that there was no copying and he was permitted to take his invention to the marketplace. I find it odd that people disagree with me on the Behringer matter. It isn't my opinion. It's just the facts. Here's the thing-- people can disagree with me and dislike me forever. It won't change the facts. When it comes to the dispute, Behringer won, got their patent and sold their product. Everything else is hurt feelings, reputation, rumors, and wishful thinking. [/QUOTE]
