Tell that to Wil Shipley. Oh I forgot, he can't afford to patent and have lawyers to protect the patent, so it's all right. http://techcrunch.com/2010/01/27/thi

- GHFigs 17y agoYou can't patent a look. Or copyright it. Or trademark it.
- alexandros 17y agoI believe the original Apple vs. Microsoft patent spat was for 'Look & Feel' as is part of the current 'Apple vs. Nokia' and 'Apple vs. HTC' patent duels. However my point was that Apple definitely builds on the ideas of others, oftentimes pretty blatantly. So no moral high ground there. What the legal system enables and what is 'right' are two different things.
- GHFigs 17y ago"Look & Feel" suit was a copyright suit. At least in theory. It established that you can't copyright "Look & Feel", like I said. What the legal system enables and what is 'right' are two different things. You were wrongly conflating the two.
