While The Big Cats Play The Rodents Strike

Whilst most people in the United States are preoccupied by an election, two British rodents and a few friends have struck.

ARM Holdings and Imagination Technologies are part of a consortium that has bought the rights to the majority of the patent portfolio of rival RISC chip business MIPS Technologies.  It’s here on The Register.

This could be a very important deal for the British computer technology industry.

European Union Creates An Awful Smell

Apparently, the EU is proposing to ban certain ingredients used in perfumes. It’s all here in the Mail.

Is Obama Going To Win?

I’ve been following a well-known betting site and the odds yesterday swung slightly to Romney, but today they’re going towards Obama.

I suspect so!
