Creative vs. Aureal -- 11:11 am CST, Update by The Master

There is a VERY interesting article on Vortex of Sound. The article discusses the lawsuit Creative brought against Aureal over supposed "patent infringement" in the Vortex chipset. If you ask me, I think this is a case of a spoiled brat not wanting to give up all their attention when the new baby arrives. Creative needs a good competitor in the sound market, and Aureal is a competitor by God. Otherwise we'd still be buying ISA sound cards from Creative at $300 a pop. I hope Aureal wins. Creative is too much of a monopoly in the sound card market anyway.
