Quoting Bob Sullivan <rf.sulli...@gmail.com>:

Darren,
Some of us still hold a grudge on Apple.
We remember our first Apple PC's
and how everything Apple cost 2X what the IBM machines cost,
how nothing - printer, disc drives, monitors, memory had to be Apple
or it wouldn't work!



Thanks, Bob. I've also got a long memory. I was trying to frame a reply along those lines and you've saved me the trouble :-)>



Cheers

Brian

years of appeals will probably ensue, but the stifling effect will start
now


Pretty much the way I read it.

The stifling of patented Intellectual Property theft? I believe that
is the purpose of the laws that are on the books (to prevent or at
least disincentivize that). I'm sure that most of you know that
patents exist to reward innovators and stimulate innovation, for the
good of society. To allow Intellectual Property larceny would stifle
that innovation (and from that we all would suffer).

Some of you act like this is the first patent lawsuit judgement you
have ever heard of.

Presumably most of you are in favor of Pentax being granted patents on
their innovations and would have an opinion if some other company
"lifted them" to Pentax's detriment. Frankly, it seems like some of
you hear the word "Apple" and your heads disappear up your arses.
