Apple vs. Google Turning Into Jobs vs. Schmidt?

[requiemsallure]

Sounds like the beginning of a story line for a soap opera.

oh, no please don't turn this into an opera... my life, it might just end. It would also be a sad day for the artistic world if such came to be...

No Apple fans on Tom's Hardware?
No comments from Steve-is-my-most-benevolent-deity crowd?

I think software patents belong in the trash bin. If you want to keep something secret, then don't put it out in a patent for the world to see.

Patents were meant to protect the little guy from big corporations stealing his idea and effort without compensation. Instead they are being used as boxing gloves for titans. What a mess.

Honestly, it seems that Gates, Jobs and Schmidt all have a brotherly rivalry going on. They all know they love and need each other, but they all want to kill each other.
I love the drama. =D

Given the option, I doubt Macintosh would pull the plug on Google or Microsoft, and vice versa.

I hope that HTC comes out on top of this stupid Apple law suit. Someone needs to teach Apple a lesson, no, to Steve, a lesson.

Jobs has always and continues to come across like a spoiled, petulant little child that hasn't gotten everything its own way.
Hes probably the least classy computer guy (except maybe Ballmer) when you look at how he behaves and the constant little snipes he lets slip about everyone else. Perhaps he should turn his questionable intellect inwards and start working out why apple marketshare worldwide is still under 4.5% despite his belief that apple products are the absolute best anyone could ever want.

I think Google should step in and back HTC, as it is really Google's OS that is said to be infringing. If they don't, other companies are going to be fearful of loading up Android with MultiTouch.

We don't really care...it's just entertaining. It's like a commericial during the Super Bowl. Do they ever make you want to increase your intake of a product you've never thought of? No... But they do keep the companies relevant. What should be gained is the reality that these are some pretty hard-working CEOs (compared to other CEOs)...
