<p>
"We are shocked and disappointed at the outcome of the claims construction
ruling," said Richard Snyder, chairman and CEO of Forgent.  "We find it
difficult to reconcile the outcome of the ruling with our continued belief
in the patent and our case.  We are currently weighing our options and will
decide our course of action in the near future."

to digital image compression used in digital still image devices that
compress, store, manipulate, print or transmit digital still images such as
digital cameras, personal digital assistants, cellular telephones,
