The Great Swiss Clock Ripoff
Doesn't Apple have any creative clock makers on staff? Must they resort to copying someone else's trademarked design without permission?

Well, it *is* a beautiful clock!
But to Apples defense, the arms are shorter in their version! ![]() |

Is that so? Better remove it and make some original stuff! What's the use of the money they got from Samsung? They must put some nice guy in the research and development dept.

Don't you people understand? It's only copying violation when other people do it to Apple. When Apple does it it's simply inspiration.
