Well, I suppose it's nice that someone finally ruled you can't patent the genetic code itself, but the net change will be practically nothing.
If they can still patent every single technique and tool involved in examining, testing, or isolating the gene then who gives a crap if they pretend they own the code? We'll still end up reinventing the wheel every time we'd like to look at any known gene; either that or we'll pay thousands of dollars in patent fees per procedure. I suppose it's nice that some district court judge finally made the biggest No Flipping Duh ruling of the genetic age, but I think it changes very little in practical terms.
