Via sues to halt Pentium 4

Hmmm, so Intel doesn't want you making chipsets for the P4, so you're going to prevent them from selling the CPUs altogether? Guess Via doesn't like to loose..

Taiwanese chip maker Via Technologies stepped up its legal battle with Intel Thursday, filing a lawsuit that seeks to halt sales of Intel's flagship Pentium 4 processor.

Via and its subsidiary Centaur Technology filed suit against Intel in the Federal District Court for the Western Division of Texas (Austin Division), where Centaur is based, alleging that the Pentium 4 violates a Centaur patent. The lawsuit seeks to stop sales of the Pentium 4 and requests that monetary damages be paid to Via and Centaur.
