The notion that a car should have rights is as laughable as the notion a
business should have rights.
I see you're from Canada (hi, Rogers!) so this while it's an alien
concept to you, welcome to the United States, the country that exports
most of it's IP law, where nVidia is based, where ATI (ironically, a
Canadian company) does most of its business, and where corporations
are people.
It may by laughable to you on the outside looking it. It's terrifying
to us down here to live under it.
Well put. Unfortunately ATI hasn't been a Canadian company for many
years. And Matrox hasn't been a player even longer.
