Well it's going to be another good year for law firms. I expect Samsung to have their fun as well but it's unlikely they'll have much of a case vs Apple. They might win some but lose many. Lawyers, they will all the time.
It seems to me, looking at the patent application, many others have patented their way of animating a page turn. Why is everyone picking on Apple for theirs? Why is Slashdot even bothering to publish such an article, obviously to troll people.
What difference does it make if he's pro patent or not? Patents exist and they are law. If the courts ignore patents, might as well not have any patents at all. The word "strong feeling" might in fact mean if he's against patents at which point he would not have been selected by Apple's lawyers.
Sharp produces commodities. There is no profit in commodities. Apple is unlikely to buy Sharp. It will continue to buy small innovative companies like Siri.
I'm not sure what you mean by problem. It's expected that other countries will gain US technology. It's just a matter for the US to continue development of better radars to detect stealth planes.
But those are not tiles. Netvibes is a tile-based RSS reader (with similar features to Google desktop). I would argue, the tiles in Windows 8 are no different except that a click on the tiles launches an application which is in fact a specialised artifact visualizer.
Windows 7 was also very very fast when it was first released. Then after a few months/years of usage, it slows to a crawl. Is it self programmed obsolescence or does Windows naturally drifts towards slower and slower performance?
At least you don't have to buy your songs from the iTunes store. There are also plenty of music and video streaming services available which are not Apple's. Apps maybe are locked-in but so what? Most people (except nerds) don't care.
And because of this, people will have no reason to get the RT vs iPad. Also, Office is not what people will use on a tablet. Maybe they will open/view and maybe comment on some Office documents (which you can do on an iPad - and not just MS Office documents), creating documents using Office will be the job of Surface Pro or your regular Windows 8 desktop/notebook.

So Google Chrome is not Google Chrome because it runs on iOS?
I claim all inhabitable planets in all galaxies to be mine. Except for two which I offer to my wife.
If it's a better wheel, I'm really excited but I've got a feeling you're being sarcastic.
Why is Homeland Security dealing with counterfeit product sales?
Are sales of fake professional sports jerseys jeopardizing our national security now?
You do not need to ask questions, citizen. Move along. Nothing to see here.
Perhaps profits from counterfeit merchandise finances terrorism?

The way I see it, SP1 will be a much much improved version of Windows 8. Unless they'll keep that for Windows 9.
If you turn off heating and air conditioning you should be using a lot less than 10kW.

So in a criminal trial for a pedophile, they should only accept jurors who believe man-boy relationships aren't that bad?

The problems with Apple Maps have been somewhat exaggerated.
And those who are taking a profit. AAPL generally follows the market but when it's bearish, it tends to go down slightly more than average.

Maybe it's volume? Sharp probably bid for Apple's business like others did. Selling it for more would mean no business at all.

Darn, I was just about to patent non-euclidian smooth manifolds as a type of higher dimentional icon.
The EFF are the vegans of technology. A little extremist at times but healthy nontheless.

...or XFS with a recent kernel.

What Anonymous is doing is called revenge. Revenge is not justice.
BTW, it's iDrones.
