[QUOTE="Goldpick, post: 344401, member: 1695"] My title may have been a little misleading, though technically it is a win for FT entering into some sort of financial agreement with Deteknix, and for them not to reproduce detectors with FT software code in future - even though the lawsuit did not eventuate. I think most companies do prefer to settle out of court vs a protracted and expensive court case, not to mention the adverse press associated with it. Sort of reminds me of when Japan used to make blatant copies of Fender guitars, and instead of Fender shutting them down, they simply bought out those companies to make guitars for the local market. Funny thing was that the Japanese guitars were of superior quality compared to the American ones produced in the same period. [/QUOTE]
