Apple Patent Points To iMac Touch Running OS X and iOS
siliconbits noted an interesting little tale of a recently surfaced Apple Patent covering an iMac Touch with a flex base that switches from iOS to OS X based on orientation. There's some interesting food for thought in there ... I can't decide if I like the idea or not.
Why? Apple got permission from Cisco to use the name.
Nothing in this patent application says they are getting rid of desktop OS X.
No, it's inherently stupid. If you disagree, then your opinion doesn't matter.
Given that Apple filed the patent in 2004, and that talk was in 2006, I shouldn't think so.
No kidding!!! What do you say at this point?
Just because he's the one standing on the stage during a keynote doesn't mean that he really did anything (I'm not saying he didn't, but I'm saying that just because he takes credit doesn't mean he deserves to take credit)
In all the years, I've seen Steve Jobs on stage, I've never heard him say anything like: "I created this." He does say, "We (Apple) created this." And at the end of the presentation, he always asks whoever in the room worked on the product to stand up and be recognized and thanked.
Well, there's spam egg sausage and spam, that's not got much spam in it.
