[edit] Supreme Court vs CAFC
The excerpt below from an anonymous user is a potentially good addition to the article, but needs a reference. Any help here?--Nowa 12:50, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] No software patent granted in the 1970s, ... seems wrong
US patent 3568156 was granted on March 2, 1971, and appears to essentially constitute a software patent. Cited in Lee A. Hollaar, Software patents in America: Current and future directions, Mitt. Vol. 11/2007--Edcolins (talk) 21:13, 20 January 2008 (UTC)
