 Notable Quotes:
--------------------------
"Having followed the US lead in making software patentable, it is only a 
matter of time before the European patenting authorities start giving the nod 
to more broadly defined "Internet business methods", legal experts say. "

"Mark Sanderson, of law firm Masons, said patenting of business methods would 
inevitably come to the UK because the US "sets the pace" in intellectual 
property practices. "
