Apple vs. Google

[MrGreg]

People who have apple stickers on their cars are people i would never associate with if I had a choice

It's amazing how attached people get to a particular brand and defend it like it's their baby.

Yeah exactly. With all these lawsuits, I'm wondering if apple thinks they invented the rectangle. I remember them suing samsung last year over the shape of their phone. ridiculous.

Years from now, after Apple's armageddon on Google, we'll be hearing fanbois talk about how Apple invented the internet. Al Gore better lawyer up.

mp3 players existed before the ipod, smart phones existed before the iphone, and voice activation existed before siri. I still don't get the google ripoff claims since everything apple makes money on is also a stolen product.

Stolen? I wouldn't go that far. Apple has better way of improving products and made everything easier for consumer to use. People always "steal" each others ideas and make improvements on them. What's wrong with that? If nobody is allowed to do that, nothing is as good as what it is now (cars, computers, operating system etc etc).

You're making my point. What I can't figure out is why Google is a thief when Apple is just making products better. Seems hypocritical to me.

You realize not everyone that defends apple is claiming that. There are ludicrous claims against Google too. Lets face it, technology is a cut throat business. Ethics are pretty much out the door at this point.

I do. It was in response to a couple of fanbois who posted earlier.
