The suit had nothing to do with Rushmore. As I recall, the courts never ruled on the Ashton-Tate case, but the government required the suit be dropped as a condition of the sale to Borland.

>I thought Ashton-Tates suit against Fox Software was based on that decision? That Dbase was based on JPLDIS and that Dbase III was based on Dbase II, et al.? I thought the court ruled that the copyright on Ashton-Tate's database program was invalid.
