How to bring crap onto yourself..Apple style

It gives me great pleasure to open my mailbox and find that Apple is being sued. It actually doesn't!

The problem with Apple, something I have been screaming for years, is that they are the best at "stealing" innovation, and then crying sour apples (or grapes, whatever) when others steal similar technology. Starting from the GUI to the iPod, none of their products are really their own.

Nothing wrong in "borrowing", "adapting", or as the latest cliche goes, "synergizing" others' ideas, but wait a second, you also want to sue them? This one might go into the next edition of "The hundred stupidest business blunders ever". Maybe, I will write that book...and hope its not a blunder too.

Oh well, now to grab that much needed coffee...
