Well this isn't completely unexpected; Apple = American, Samsung = S.Korean, lawsuit in the heart of Silicon Valley etc.

It really is a load of crap though. Don't get me wrong, Samsung's counter claims were just as ridiculous, but all the doctored photos and bullcrap arguments have already been thrown out of courts elsewhere in the world. This whole thing has been pathetic.

Seems to me Apple saw a company getting a bit too big and bringing out phones/tablets that were truly competitive and popular with consumers then tried to sue to defend their position in the market. Even though they won, I'm beginning to wonder if this hasn't done a bit of damage to their reputation. Apple has thrived with a reputation of being the cool company.... the different, upcoming underdog and not as evil as the other massive corporations. Now they're the large evil corporation trying to stifle the competition through lawsuits.

Tbh, I think the US courts should have sued both companies for wasting the taxpayers time and money... might help with those government debts.
