An IBM lawyer pressing a court case on this patent would qualify as "court jester."
I already wrote both congressmen before coming here to see what you people have to say. How about, instead of you b1tching about us b1tching, we could draft our own new laws to prevent this kind of misguided big brother, control-freakism from bringing us even more harm?
Humans are tool users. We must be free to design, build, and use them without being hindered by governments. Otherwise, science and technology are dead.
Let us begin...
"Congress shall create no law that controls, abridges, or prevents any person from the freedom to design, build, or use computing tools (either physical or logical objects) in any fashion of their choice, unless said tools can be shown to directly cause intentional harm or destruction."
Here's a second law that would increase the ethics of those passing and enforcing our laws (yes, graft is illegal, just not apparently for governmental officials):
"1. No government official shall vote themselves raises. Instead said raises must be put to a vote and passed by a simple majority of citizens who the government official represents or controls.
2. No governmental official shall accept money, property, or any type of future compensation outside the standard salary paid for their governmental position as compensation or encouragement for their promotion or blockage of any law or for any pardon granted. This law is retroactive. Any governmental official found to have personally gained over and above their governmental salary and benefits as a result of governmental activities shall be immediately removed from office and lose their eligibility to vote or hold public office for the rest of their life. Any objects of value received shall be forfeited and sold, with proceeds being distributed equally to the full class of private citizens who hold the opposing viewpoint or whom a jury agrees stands to lose freedom or come to harm if such illegally paid-for legislation were to be enacted."
That second one is difficult to write and all of it probably has a zillion loopholes I don't see. So help me edit them until they're workable and fair.
If we don't stop congress from abusing their powers they will continue to increasingly abuse us. If a law like the SSSCA passes, people who value their freedom will simply use old computers and repair them with old parts.
This is the way high tech dies... "not with a bang but with a whimper"?
A better analogy than packaging is plagarism.
Timothy is naive to think Apple should invest millions in man hours and not choose to protect their product's unique attributes. Would you expect Microsoft not to protect Win2k Server? Bet you not only would, but would find some rationalization why it is okay for Microsoft to protect their products, but not for Apple.
Timothy, get over it. Apple will. They have a legal right to.
Who gets to start posts here these days? 8 year olds?
If I found the correct numbers, we only had 22 condors in 1982 and there's now 120. Given that, a couple of hundred mammoths might be nice, but is likely not required to ensure adequate genetic diversity in a species. No one's saying we should give up on condors... Does anyone have solid data on a minimum number needed? I've read other mammoths have been found in Siberia, so perhaps we're not limited to this one creature's DNA.

so much for innovation and examining real-world usage of paper pads. a wireless peripheral paper pad would not sell as many laptops i suppose.
