Aren't the real issues obviousness and prior art? The interfaces for Cover Flow and Time Machine are fun, but they hardly seem patent-worthy. How could a jury of 12 non-technical people possibly be qualified to judge if a patent is valid? I would not feel qualified to judge if an automotive patent is valid, so how can a non-developer judge a software patent? The system is broken.
