I made part of my living in the 90s from selling and installing Dragon's software, and was perplexed to see L&H buy the company and then implode. What an appalling story, though I wonder why it has taken so long to end up in litigation.
Maybe because Dragon Systems was acquired by Lernout & Hauspie, that in turn was bought by Scansoft, that was bought by Nuance, that did a partnership with... Apple! to make Siri, and Siri tech is now worth millions/billions (Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scansoft)
