One reason the mac operating system runs so well is because apple has complete control over the hardware it runs on. The operating systems will start to run slowly with crappy drivers on third party machines. The market place would be better off if apple won this lawsuit. apple has encourage some nice all in one touch screen desktops from hp and all in one computers from dell. i don't think we'd have these companies making these products right now if apple hadn't stepped up. take the touch iphone for instance, now half the phones on the market are inexpensive touch screen phones. apple is pushing the market place. we shouldn't punish them for that. this is another example of how government can get involved and ruin things for the rest of us

Would this be practical for home use? I believe most computers and home appliances will run off 240V.
...enough to use an electronic device without it being a security problem I don't see why Obama couldn't handle such a difficult task as president.
