Learn when*NOT* to file a lawsuit, then again, do so if you are just after the $$$.

From The New York Times: Gibson Guitar filed a patent infringement lawsuit against Guitar Hero’s publishers. Gibson said the games, in which players use a guitar-shaped controller in time with notes on a television screen, violate a 1999 patent for technology to simulate a musical performance.

Well, duh.

I think this act is actually bad for the Gibson brand image.
