- Zenst 14y agoYes a small company called that were working on a CPU that would become the ARM cpu was happily demoing there new computer the archimedies and to demonstrate the new CPU they did something that had not been done in realtime. Yes the page turn effect, was also a waving flag surface and few other demonstrations of this great processing power. Now If I watch a film on TV on a digital screen and in that film somebody turns a page of a book, then would I also technicaly be violating this digital patent. Patents like this are fine, as long as there are in a common-sence pool of free use for all, anything else is well, just wrong.
