Oh, and just to comment on Apple: yes, I'm a Mac-user, but even I recognize that Apple has been just a tad too patent-happy lately. I mean, remember when the first iMac came out, so Apple started suing everyone who made a clone of the machine? You put the CPU into the monitor....big deal. I've seen that before on dedicated machines.

But, you have to admit that Apple tends to be "first" in a lot of concepts that get copied throughout the industry. I imagine that Mr. Jobs gets a little tired of that.

Ah well...I have to expect that Apple is a corporation just like Microsoft, Sony, Intel, and IBM.
