Editorial Remember a month ago, when I urged the open source developers to take on this software and develop something equivelant and multi-platform? It seems that the only people who actually got interested in my $100 USD offer... was Apple.

Just because you receive a patent doesn't mean you are a REAL innovator. Web, TCP/IP, ethernet, 802.11b, Firewire, mouse, CRT, LCD, hard drive, browser, microprocessor, on, on, on technologies that have shaped our lives. Name one of your 396 patents that has actually influenced the computer industry. Just one? Patent #234 the Talking Paper Clip?

Apple, IBM, Sun, Intel and many others do REAL innovation.

Sorry.
