    Before you go around boosting how many ideas are copied from Apple, check out OS X. It's an operating system Apple claims to have made. It's almost completely ripped from open source projects, mostly FreeBSD but also samba, apache and many more. The rest that isn't ripped straight off was bought in from a company called Next. Apple did almost nothing on the OS themselves. They even had to bring over the Next CEO because Apple had ZERO idea of what they where doing at all.

    I don't know where you have your sources, but I'm sorry to say they are wrong. There isn't much inventing going on at Apple. Just look at how they jumped on the x86 bandwagon 15 year later then everybody else.
