    This is getting ridiculous. I happen to live in Nashville, the site of Gibson's headquarters, and they are a great asset to our community.

I have a hard time buying any Gibson product knowing that it supports decisions like this. It just seems so petty.

    I have an absolute love / hate thing going on at the moment. I love the guitars, but I hate the company. I love how they are trying to embrace new technologies, but I hate how they are marketing and implementing them ie: the Robot series.

    Do they have a contract that states that Activision had agreed to work with Gibson for more than three years? I don't understand what the breach of patent is? I love Gibson guitars and I play Guitar Hero often on my xbox 360. I dig both products, and when all the facts come out, I hope I am not put off of either company but chances are someone is being a butt-head here...and I don't get why Gibson is going after stores that sell Guitar Hero? What the heck is that about?!
