Acer Files Suit Against Hewlett-Packard

[HardOCP News]

Acer released a statement today saying that it has filed a lawsuit against Hewlett-Packard in the District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. Wasn’t it HP suing Acer last month in the very same court? Déjà vu anyone?

In late March, HP filed a lawsuit at the same court, alleging Acer had violated five patents covering technologies that included DVD editing, managing power consumption in portable computers and ways to use multiple microprocessor chips. HP also filed another lawsuit against Acer in April at the International Trade Commission alleging infringement of four of the same patents.
