		<description><![CDATA[Point well made. If that&#039;s why people are against Apple then I agree too. Being a tech savy guy, I prefer Android over iOS any day of the year. If Apple is trying to make it so that they&#039;re the only ones with all the power then naturally I&#039;m against it. 


Still, Apple isn&#039;t the only doing all the suing. They&#039;re both suing each other, they win some they lose some. I still believe that Apple isn&#039;t all bad, but we&#039;ll see what the future brings. 


Would really hate to see a ban on Galaxy Note II. Apples marketing is very well done, I&#039;m always surprised how many people flock for new iPhones even though it has maybe 3 new features. Thanks for clearing it up. :-) Good discussion. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Just to be clear, Apple never &quot;invented&quot; anything at all. They just simply took what already existed and improved it or in some cases, just simply rebranded other stuff. Intel invented the first touch screen phone almost 10 years before the iPhone. same with the iPad, Microsoft has been in the tablet and smartphone business long before Apple. If anyone owns the most real patents for smartphones and tablets, its Microsoft. They&#039;ve had a 10 year head start and 10 years worth of patents that Apple doesn&#039;t have Which explains why Microsoft has Android manufacturers paying them royalties. also, the whole &quot;too big&quot; argument that you just brought up was exactly what brought Microsoft and every other big corporation down. its also going to bring Apple down. This is called a monopoly and Apple is on the verge of having one. if they succeed with these lawsuits, Android will be gone and smartphones will be limited primarily to iPhones. That is why Apple can be perceived as evil. Their intent is to force everyone to use their products in an ecosystem that restricts the end-user. You think Apple is some kind of messiah of the tech world? Think again. Also, the reason why people keep buying iPhones is because of marketing. It&#039;s all just marketing. And, people who are self proclaimed Apple fanboys will simply always buy Apple products on impulse. Otherwise, ordinary non tech wavy consumers will pick a device based on the level of influence from marketing. Apple does have the most effective marketing solution in the world to the point where its borderline brainwashing. That is why theure doing so well right now, not necessarily because they make great products. Don&#039;t forget, Apple wouldn&#039;t be here if it wasn&#039;t for Microsoft. Apple almost went bankrupt in the 90&#039;s until Microsoft bailed them out. And until a few years ago, Microsoft basically owned half of Apple. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Of course we all know Samsung and other companies make Apple hardware parts. They don&#039;t make Apple&#039;s screens any more, that&#039;s Sharp&#039;s job now. Apple is the game changer. Before 2007, you were just taking whatever a company made. They really were not making an effort. Not any more, now they&#039;re all pushing forward thanks to Apple. 


Was there a device like the iPhone before it&#039;s release in 2007? No I don&#039;t think so. Before Retina display, you were all satisfied with lousy 480x800 displays and such. Now screen resolution is another factor people look at when buying mobile devices, thanks to Apple. 


Maybe other companies don&#039;t do marketing like Apple does, doesn&#039;t mean that they can&#039;t. Apple doesn&#039;t &quot;claim&quot; to own anything. They either invent, or in most cases, take the technology that&#039;s already there and make it infinitely better and in the process put their name on it. 


Take Siri, sure we had voice search and such on phones, but nothing close to a voice assistant. In my opinion, Google&#039;s Voice Assistant is better than Siri. Samsung&#039;s S Voice is a gimmick, proven by the comparison videos you&#039;ll find on YouTube. It just isn&#039;t ready. 


Being an Android guy, yes I wouldn&#039;t hate to see phones like Galaxy Note II banned. But you can&#039;t just go to court and sue someone without good evidence. Which is why I&#039;m still surprised to see so many people bitching about Apple, making it out to be the bad guy here. I suppose you all want Samsung because Apple has become &quot;too big&quot; eh. Hm

		<description><![CDATA[Higher quality? You didn&#039;t buy into Apple marketing did you? I think you should know that Apple products just use standard industry components. Their Macs all use standard PC hardware shared by Windows manufacturers. The iPhone&#039;s and ipads all use hardware manufactured by Samsung and LG thus making Apple products the same as Android devices hardware-wise. The only real difference is the software. As for build quality, Microsoft&#039;s surface tablet uses VaporMG which is vaporized magnesium for its shell. That&#039;s of much higher quality than the standard and easy to dent brushed aluminum. Also, Dell XPS and Alienware laptops are of higher build quality than macbooks. Also, what&#039;s being &quot;stolen&quot; from Apple is their claim that they own the Rectangle shape as well as industry standard app icons. Why don&#039;t Apple sue schools for teaching little kids how to draw rectangles? That is why everyone disagrees with Apple&#039;s lawsuits. If they really had ligitimate reasons to sue, then that&#039;s fine. ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[You&#039;re not the one being stolen from. If you were running a multi-billion dollar company, you wouldn&#039;t just sit around and let others steal your ideas or walk over you. You talk as if Apple is the root of all evil here, but I suppose you want to overlook all the law suits against Apple as well.


You talk as if Apple is the big bad dog kicking the little sick puppies. Samsung lost, deal with it and stop your bitching. It&#039;s pathetic trying to make Apple out to be the bad guy. When Samsung won their law suit against Apple in SK, I guess you were hiding in a cave. Now they&#039;re on Apple&#039;s playground, you sue me, I sue you. 


Apple products maybe higher priced, but people still buy them for a reason. They aren&#039;t the only ones with products with a higher than average price. Quality speaks for itself. Have you ever seen a Windows laptop as well built as a Macbook? I didn&#039;t think so. I&#039;m all for Android and Windows, but when people start bitching because Apple won the law suit, it really grinds my gears.

Take a lady from ancient Thailand and bring her forward in time and over to New York City...It is safe to say she might be shitting in the street whenever she has to take a dump, rather than quickly finding the nearest public restroom in which to discretely dispose of her waste.

Point is... what&#039;s evil over here might be good over there.
I&#039;d say that if there were any modern typical definition of evil...
You might think Dahmer, whoever the idiot is disposing of hookers in remote locations on long island, or....maybe....the lady who boiled her newborn like a she was lobster dinner.
But to compare two companies that are engaging in practices that literally drive an industry in many divergent, evolutionary directions is....

		<description><![CDATA[Why doesn&#039;t Samsung just threaten to stop making the chips and displays for Apple&#039;s iPhone and iPad? Without Samsung, there would be a sudden shortage of iPhone&#039;s and iPad&#039;s because Apple would have to find another company with the capabilities to produce the display and chipset of Apple&#039;s products. 
Parts-wise, an iPhone and iPad are pretty much Samsung products. Most of the parts were manufactured either by Samsung or LG. Samsung should have good leverage against Apple when it comes to this. &quot;Stop suing us or else you won&#039;t have your iDevices anymore&quot;. 
I hope after this trial, Samsung may start focusing more on their Windows Phone handsets. I really love their Samsung Focus lines. Perhaps if Apple does manage to destroy Android like Steve Jobs promised he would, then Samsung would have no choice but to shift their whole line of products to Windows Phone. Who knows, the Galaxy S4 or S5 could run Windows Phone. I would really love to see a Galaxy Windows Phone. For now, the only flagship Windows Phones are Samsung&#039;s Focus line, HTC&#039;s Titan line, and Nokia&#039;s Lumia line. We need more! ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Technically, Microsoft while it had its near monopoly, never really did anything as bad as Apple. The whole thing with Microsoft&#039;s monopoly is that they bundle software such as Internet Explorer or Windows Media Player with Windows. Because they did that, Internet Explorer, the default browser, would piggy back off the success of Windows and thus other browser makers would be at a disadvantage. That&#039;s the truth behind Microsoft&#039;s monopoly. Now look at Apple and tell me they&#039;re the same as Microsoft. Even during Microsoft&#039;s monopoly, they never did anything bad that would hurt consumers. People still enjoyed Microsoft&#039;s products and they still had a choice with how they want to use Microsoft&#039;s products. Microsoft continued to pump out great products like the Xbox or their Mouse &amp; Keyboard products. All of which was priced very competitively and subsidized so much, unlike Apple which charges 2x the cost of the components. 
Apple&#039;s monopoly is a whole new category and no other company in the past has had a monopoly as cruel and corrupt as Apple&#039;s. ]]></description>

By the way did you not notice last week that samsung was investing billions into a new plant in Texas. Don&#039;t think a whole lot of korean jobs will be in that plant. Seems like a whole lot of U.S. workers will benefit. So maybe you should reconsider your statement. Is samsung creating more blue collar jobs in the U.S. or apple? I know for certain that apple is doing a bang up job creating employment in china. Helping china own more even more of the U.S.]]></description>

This week, I have a seething deep hatred of the entire apple branding. I have never despise a company like I do apple, a company back in the late 80s that I love. Congrats apple, you have surpassed Microsoft in so many ways including being far more evil than they ever were.


Just say no to apple.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Hey did they actually get video footage along with a trail of emails that indicated beyond any shadow of doubt that a specific person on apple&#039;s inside workforce close to the project stole key software concepts that led to Samsung&#039;s mastery of the same technology?

Seriously, I mean if that is not what happened whats the point in filing a complaint about it in the first place?

I mean can you imagine waaaay back when the wheel was invented. Literally the foundation furthering our land expeditions for over 5000  years.

&quot;The oldest wheel found in archeological excavations was discovered in what was Mesopotamia and is believed to be over fifty-five hundred years old.&quot;

I don&#039;t think its really possible to patent a wheel per se, but you could patent a wheel that, say, had a 150% longer life-span on the road than most of its competitors. Of course, on that level we are talking about the underlying chemical structure of seminal components that make one wheel different from the other. Perhaps they use the same chemicals but just in varying percentages and consistencies.

So I&#039;ll say that you can patent a variation on a theme. You absolutely cannot patent the Theme itself, even if you were the first to make it available to the public.

		<description><![CDATA[Here&#039;s hoping this complete and utter load of ******* finally mobilizes enough of the masses to rage about fixing our patent and copyright laws. 

Apple has swiftly moved from opportunists to sinister evildoers out to screw the consumer. With Samsung out of the picture they have carte blanche and they  have a history of taking full advantage of any and every situation. 


Keep letting Apple rape anything it wants and you are going to find yourself paying $5 every time you fart in public because Apple has patented every variation of smell and sound involved in passing gastrointestinal gas.
