      .... further.

      We all remember the MAC v WIN videos, now dead in their tracks? While they were funny at the start, they beacme boring over time.

      I think a lot of MAC users, me included, felt these videos were a little underhanded. The way to trump the opposition / competition is by producing better results, not trying to make them look stupid! Apple must have realised this and are now taking the Court route.

      Folks will see through this also. Trouble is now, from what I see, is that Apple could well be believing their own BS! I wish they would cut out this messing and get on with what they are quite good at, innovative tweaking. I am quite looking forward to seeing what they have in mind for my possible next TV πŸ˜‰

            It was once rumored that they planned to buy "our" TV manufacturer Loewe (since 1923).

            The design would fit...

            That would make me

              The Polish A.pl is really taking things too far!

              Anyway, it looks like the new iPhone5 could be in a spot of bother!

              Is The Next iPhone Already In Patent Trouble?

              '.....competitors such as Samsung and HTC are already warning Apple that if it releases a new iPhone with LTE connectivity, they will sue the company for patent infringements and will demand a sales ban in the U.S.'

                  Just thought that we should start planning what the phonetic alphabet will become if the likes of APPLE start to make claim to the rights of each letter!

                  Apple, British Petrolium, Coke, Dell, Exxon, Ford, General Motors, Honda, Intel, .......!!!

                    The bigger they are the harder they fall... I'd keep a close eye on the share price if you hold any.

                    Viewpoint: Apple's iPhone launches no longer excite

                    Dan Lyons, creator of the Fake Steve Jobs blog, explains why he thinks Apple has become boring.

                    favicon

                    BBC News (www.bbc.co.uk)

                    It does raise the question have Apple lost their innovation skills?

                    I also wonder where Apple stand if others refuse to supply or licence their own innovations to Apple because of their arrogance?

                    They might even have backed themselves into a corner with their "Look & Feel" protectionism which others will turn on them... 7" screen anyone?

                      Yeah, Apple really need to 'lighten up'! They are taking themselves far to seriously when it comes to some areas they are trying to protect.

                      The main attraction with Apple for me is their OS. Yes, their goods are well built and nice to use etc etc but its really the 'ease of use' issue that is important for me and, I imagine, many other Mac users.

                      Still when a company has cash flowing out their ears they will be temped to get into legal ways of holding their position and they will find no shortage of legals willing to take their cash.

                      The best way to stay ahead is to keep ahead, not beat the completion back!

                        This thread has been a real iOpener. Wait, no I didn't say that, iMeant to say something else but
                        iGot confused. Sh**, iPut myself in real trouble now. iGotta go. πŸ˜’

                        I think Apple may be also playing the "there is no such thing as bad advertising" card. It's pathetic, so if someone can come up with a cover that makes my iPhone look like a Samsung, I'm a taker.

                        Just monkeying around....like Monsanto
