Analysis: Apple bid for Samsung sales ban faces skeptical court

Apple should know that since Microsoft donated heavily to obama’s inauguration that they will not get anywhere with this. We should also see a big bill for a computer upgrade for the White House soon-to Windows 8…..wannna bet. Samsung’s phone does Win 8 you know.

I am so sick of this political junk I could scream!

Good. I hope Apple loses. I have been using Apple products personally since the early 90s and professionally since 2001 and I have never been more pissed at them. They have completely lost their soul. The used to make products for creative professionals, now they have forsaken that market for grandmas and college students. You’d think being the richest company on Earth they could cater to both, but year after year since the iPhone came out the have walked further and further away from the power user.

This patent war with Samsung is an anti-competetive monopolistic power grab. Its not like Samsung is unfairly free-riding on the coat tails of Apple’s R&D. The are suing over round corners and non-proprietary ‘inventions’ like that. Most software patents are complete BS and should never have been awarded by the patent office in the 1st place. There are patents so broad that they cover ALL COMMERCE taking place on the internet. That’s like claiming a patent for the invention of the wheel.

I agree with the court ruling. Let the marketplace decide. Apple used to be known for its innovation. Now, Apple = corporate greed, and using its muscle to destroy competition. Their Iphone 5 was a half hearted attempt at updating a phone that was 2 years behind the competition. Apple: fire half of your lawyers and go back to good old fashioned R & D. Stop buying patents for use in court, invent things that are creative. Apple Ipad Mini was a sad attempt to capitalize on the 7″ market when earlier, Jobs said Apple would not be interested. Time to wake up apple or you will be a has been.
