It doesn't mean anything at all.

The last patent that had any meaning at all (read: toggling multiple selection within single menu session) expired some time ago already.

Patent != copyright or trademark either, so this doesn't mean that you can copy Kickstart ROMs or use Amiga trademark.


So true, and so unfortunate that the copyrights and trademarks are being held hostage by someone that appears to care far less about Amiga than most of us care.
