Victory For Apple In "Patent Trial of the Century," To the Tune of $1 Billion

pdabbadabba writes "The jury is in in the epic patent dispute between Apple and Samsung and Apple appears to be coming out on top. The court is still going through the 700+ items on the verdict form, but things seem to be going Apple's way so far. In the case of Apple's various UI patents, the jury is consistently ruling that Samsung not only violated Apple's patent, but did so willfully." Reader bob zee also points to the AP's story, as carried by Breitbart.com, and Charliemopps adds Reuters' take. Reader Samalie contributes a link to a live blog of the (at this writing) ongoing recitation of the verdict. Whether you like it or not, even this verdict won't be the last word.

So basically you can look forward to an Apple only world from now on because they have the most money and people are too stupid to realize Apple did not invent the world.

Fuck Apple.

They didn't actually invent any of that. Every singe one of those was 'copied' from those who invented them.
