So, what does this company I have never heard of do?
If it's nothing then, well, f*** off Nonend.

Is it possible to patent based on general description with out the workflow? is it considered infringing if the description is the same but the workflow is different? I'm just throwing it out there.

Software Patent System ina Nutshell:

[A Bad Day]

This will be the first lawsuit Nonend has filed in defense of its patents, the report states.

Do I see irony here?
