No, no, no.
Apple is a hardware company. That's where their money comes from. They have the highest profit return in the entire computer industry. They make software to lure people into buying Apple hardware.
Think about BootCamp. Apple has no problem whatsoever if people run Microsoft software on Apple hardware. What they fought tooth and nail to prevent is people running Apple software (OS X) on non-Apple hardware.
Wilson - Democrat - WW1
FDR - Democrat - WW2 (FDR went even further than most, he had the US Navy attacking German warships months before war was declared by Germany or authorized by the Congress)
Truman - Democrat - Korea
JFK/LBJ - Democrats - Vietnam
And those are just the major wars.
Jimmy Carter was the only Democrat president who didn't start a war. He wasn't re-elected.

I am, however, a bit disillusioned about free speech now. As far as I can tell, there isn't any. It's a lie.
Wrong. Your wife wasn't shot, fired from her work, sent to prison, put into house arrest, forced to exile. She just had to supprort the consequences of her actions. You ought to be familiar with that concept.
TomTom wanted to "Win", but eventually and as predicted, took the swap. They finally figured out that Microsoft had more lawyers and were going to lose.

Want the best mood while coding? That's when you consider the balcony of a beach-front apartment, or a nice table with comfy chairs at a restaurant with a view for the afternoon.
Nope. This kind of mistake is more likely to be made by native English speakers.
My theory is that there is no "English" language; there are two distinct languages: Written English and Spoken English. Non-native English users often start with Written English (learning from books); they are less likely to confuse similar-sounding words. Learning Spoken English early appears to be a serious obstacle to learning proper Written English.:)
The whole point of patents is to reward and encourage innovation.
What you say might once been true, but today the whole point of patents is to stifle competition.
"Protect the little man" is nothing more than propaganda. Companies accumulate patents in the same way that the US and the Soviet Union accumulated nuclear weapons: to make sure any patent attack can be retaliated. What chance does an individual inventor have ?

Of course they are, just as (car analogy ahead) a Trabant or Yugo is equivalent to Rolls-Royce or Maybach.
Don't forget the matching M1 Garand and Ford Gran Torino.

Aha, so as long as I don't distribute the "This is the trigger, pull here" leaflet, I'm fine, right ?
Not everybody is good at stealing...
Yeah, Who you gonna call ? Parent deserves an "Insightful", btw.
Uh ? How many Iranian presidents are there ?
It builds on work done during the 1980s by the U.S. Naval Research Laboratory, based on a concept called Linus
... does it run Linux ?
