* U.S. Patent No. 5,946,647 on a "system and method for
performing an action on a structure in computer-generated
data."

Well, as stated, that applies to just about every computer, past,
present, and future. Most data networking equipment is out, as
well.

* U.S. Patent No. 6,343,263 on a "real-time signal processing
system for serially transmitted data."

Yep, as stated, that takes virtually all voice and data
transmission out. In fact, everything based on DSP is out.

There has to be a *LOT* more to these than what the author of this
article quotes, because the above snippets are far too vague to
be taken seriously.

NOTE: I AM NOT A LAWYER (Thank God for that!).
