Microsoft, Autodesk lose patent appealSome jurisdictions, e.g. Kalifornia, have enacted legislation specifically forbidding employers from claiming IP developed by their employees on the employees own time using the employees own resources. I know, because my employment contract specifically excludes California-based employees from some of it's provisions.

Haha, losersWe go to Maui about once a year. Someone recommended a condo instead of a hotel, and I'll ditto that; it simply gives you more food options. We stay in West Maui, a little North of Ka'anapali (at the Papakea resort), but anywhere in the Lahaina to Kapalua area is nice. The other nice area on the island is South Maui, around Kihei. Never stayed there but we plan to try it one of these years if we can rip ourselves away from the Papakea. Ours is a timeshare so we book our travel separately. If this is your honeymoon, splurge on a convertible. It's the only way to get around the island; you'll love it! I'd be happy to answer any other questions.

Credit Card QuestionUSAA was ranked #1 in customer service among *all* companies in the USA in the March '07 Business Week cover article. The only catch is that you have to be military, ex-military, related to ex-military, or child of a current member to become a member. (They've also got great insurance rates.)
