Brasseagle really suing Halo

[Mossman]

While i agree this is total crap, and i hate BE for this (as well as many other things), It worries me.

Fortunately, it seems it may have worried the great guys at oddysey enough to put together a sound activated loader too

I think we'll be alright. Maybe Oddysey can make a deal like "BE gets 25% of all halo B profits from here on out", then be super sneaky and discontinue the Halo B and get that Halo TSA goin Not sure if thats allowed but it'd be sweet

BE sued them because of the HALO A because it used the same type of mechnaisms are the revvys did which were patended. why would they have to make a deal with their HALO B which is totally different then the HALO A or the revvys?

Yup. That would be the talon.
Only costs $20 and breaks after the first day!

Actually no, I still have my talon from almost 5 years ago and it still works. It's one thing to put down a manufacturer about making a bad product, it's another saying they make a bad product when they don't. Yes the talon is cheap, but what can you expect for the money?

The halo B is just a revamped Halo A...they still work in basically the same way. If they had a sensor to see how much pressure on the ball stack they were exerting It would be different, but halo's do have an optical sensor to see when balls are in the tube and when they're moving across the tube, and that is what BE has patented.

and look what happened to them a little while ago. LAWSUIT!

[TRIAD]

They still monopolize the industry, no matter how many people sue them. They literally RULE the computer world, and the company would have to be dismantled piece-by-piece to get it to break up. Then, of course, we'd have nothing. So, they're in a perfect situation. Too big to distroy by a simple "lawsuit", yet too important to eliminate completely.
