I shouldn't get involved in this - I will probably piss {some,every}one
off big time.
What the hell ...

Long ago I looked at buying a Lisa - but I wanted to upgrade it.
Like Apples fscked up business model would allow that ... never bought
Apple, never will.
And who amongst you believe Larry Ellison has *your* interests at heart ?.
CPTN Holdings maybe ... ?
Redhat ... ?
Ubuntu ... ?

Sorry, the times of innocence have passed.

Shane ...

and then getting buyed by some evil corporation who uses the patents
against everyone else?  (C.f. Sun and Oracle.)  It's not that Sun was
particularly hostile to open source.

Kind regards

So what's your alternative?  Ignore the broken state of IP law, do
stuff anyway? You might want to ask Google and friends how that's
working out for them vis-a-vis Oracle and Apple.

I, for one, would prefer companies with a good track record of
commitment to the open source world hoover up dumb patents and leave
them sitting idle rather than Apple getting hold of them and launching
another one of their efforts to stop anyone else making GUIs,
smartphones, or whatever.
