		andrewgioia on Aug 27, 2010 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: Paul Allen Sues Apple, Others Over Patents It's really odd that Paul Allen is doing this, he certainly doesn't need the money or the hassle. Is it possible that he's suing these high profile companies to spark some kind of legislative reform re: software patents?

Little is known publicly about Allen's state of health these days, or who is really in control of his holdings, for that matter.
