Samsung copies Apple's OS X dock
- patdennis 14y agoI mean, third party docks have been available for a long time. This does come across as a bit tone deaf, though.
- astrodust 14y ago"Sorry? What? Looks like Apple? Who are they?" Is this going to be their defense on this matter? Can't someone else create something worth copying?
- Of_Prometheus 14y agoOut of curiosity, how exactly does one go about creating a "different" dock that also has a glass pane underneath? Different colour? Or angle of the pane? Different shape (which Samsung's version has)? I'm wondering how much Samsung could do here without being accused of copying, other than removing the pane altogether. EDIT: I do realise I'm nitpicking, but can someone also explain what the author means with this sentence: "Samsung’s designers have no taste, or ability to come up with an original idea that was inspired by others without just completely ripping it off." I understand the point, but the wording is rather confusing. They're coming up with an original idea by ripping off another one? If their designers have no taste, why are they ripping off supposedly well-designed products (i.e. iPhone, etc.) instead of poorly-designed ones? They must have great taste in phones, if they keep copying the iPhones. Can an inspired idea truly be original?
