You're an employee of Apple, right? I think the ":shape of the iPhone lawsuit", was when they managed to prove, "it's not what you know, it's which lawyers you hire, and which judges and juries you pay off. Not to mention the lawsuit was aimed at Samsung. Which is, as we used to say in the old days, "biting the hand that feeds you".You couldn't have said it better. For all those who keep bashing Apple, people, open your eyes !!! which other company has done so much to advance the computer and tech industry as a whole? How has any other tech company in any way innovated anything ever? or do you consider netbooks, backberries or IE6 or Windows or anything else revolutionary?
Stop being such whiners...they sue because everyone out there stole their design, their look and their polish...if you took a company from nothing to what it is today and all of a sudden, every crappy tech company from Micro$ost to RIM to $am$ung copied everything that had made you successful, what would you do? would you sit back and say it's ok, let them copy everything I have worked for...c'mon people, nobody asked you to like Apple for what they are or how they compare to others.
At the end of the day, if you whiners knew better, you would be where apple is now and have the world`s most valuable company....STOP THE HATING ! Give credit where and when it's due !
Yes, but we can still have the audacity to hope and dream, can't we? You won't take that away from us.Even with the slump they're seeing on the stock market they're still pulling in more revenue per annum than a lot of countries in the UK. They also have a huge surplus in their treasury to keep them afloat... they won't be selling their HQ like Nokia or Sony for a long time even if their sales dived bombed now.
I agree in full with your first two paragraphs but they weren't really innovative, it was more like a lot of smoke & mirrors. Apple reminds me a lot of Lance Armstrong, they try run rough shod over everyone with their strong arm (Armstrong) tactics & try sue the pants off entire world when they're up against it.Man, some serious Apple haters here.
I don't hate them, but I also don't use any of their products. There are cheaper alternatives available in every category.
But I'll give them props for their innovation (whether you want to call it "stolen" or not) in getting products that the masses have just inhaled since their release. But that was 99% Jobs doing. With him gone, we'll see how viable Apple will be 10 years from now.
Good article!
