After all, you don't want to just admit that Apple invented the rounded rectangle.
- calpaterson 14y agoHard to tell whether you're being sarcastic or not, but for what it's worth I wouldn't say that Apple deserves no credit. (I think they deserve lot of credit, but copying is something they do too.)
- achompas 14y agoI really don't see how Apple's actions some 30 years ago excuse obvious trade dress violations by HP. Even if we accept that Apple "copied" Xerox, it is still clear that HP is grossly copying the iMac design. How is that remotely acceptable?
- calpaterson 14y agoSorry, I'm not trying to say that its relevant to any case that Apple might raise. IANAL, let alone an American one. I'm trying to point out that copying is rife (and, I would argue, legitimate) in technology.
- podperson 14y agoFor the record, I am being sarcastic (which I believe the linked post makes clear).
