in closing, he said; "I close by asking this: If Apple products are so innovative, why doesn't Apple compete rather than litigate?" I believe (and I'm not a lawyer) that you need to actively enforce your design patents or they expire. That said, I think patents in their current form are stupid, and patent reform is necessary. In the general sense, I believe Apple does innovate. Having their magsafe power adapter has safed my laptop countless times. They didn't invent magnetic power cables, but they are the first (and only that I know of) to do it in laptops. Where
