Motorola Yields 18 Patents Google Can Use Against Apple

[fish1552]

I am sure by now people think I am an apple fanboy and that's fine but I am not defending Apple so much as I am saying people need to see the true problem and that is the tech patent system is so beyond broken, it's just a giant joke. With that being said if they award me with a patent for something dumb, its still entirely in my best financial interest to file a lawsuit, plain and simple.

I know I don't. I know exactly where you were coming from and I actually agree with you. If these forums had a "like" link, like some of the other Forum Foundry sites, I would have used it.
But I also think the courts need to understand this fact and rule accordingly. They do it all the time in other types of legal cases, why not when corporations are throwing big money around for patent cases?

EDIT: Ok, obviously I need to find the "like" method over here. I'm used to seeing it just below and to the right of the post.

But with that being said, I'd like to see a circle shaped tablet. It may be the first iteration of the Tron disk we all start wearing attached to our backs.

Hahaha, that is one way to do it.... but the other is when you mouse over the text for a specific post, the ability to "like" should show up in the place you described; bottom right of the post text.

For some reason, it wasn't showing up. I just went in and double checked my settings and when I came back here, they were showing up. Weird.

It made it even more frustrating because while looking around the settings, one of the pages I went to, showed that I had "liked" a thread a while back. So I obviously had used it before. LOL
