Well, I know, and I am not against the idea of money as incentive. But that, in no way, can justify immoral, unethical, psychopathic behavior of corporations in name of profit, and it can never be used to defend anything.

I have seen this "but they are answerable only to their stockholders" (i.e. capitalism) argument here on slashdot more than enough to make my blood boil.

Profit can never be allowed at the expense of person or society or humanity.

This post is related to patents. GP I replied to mentioned patents. So yes, my comment has to be surely and utterly "unrelated".

Anyway, so now that you have called me a hater means I can call you Apple's bitch, right? (See? It works both ways.)

Patent stupidity - it has worked for Apple. Why should Pfizer not do the same?

Oh I see. They did not have Steve Jobs and his RDF to work it's magic on /. crowd.

Hey, they are just taking care of their stockholders Nothing wrong with it, right?

Capitalism, it just works, bitches.

>> You really think Murdoch babysits any of these people?

No, but do you think it's unlikely that get-the-story-no-matter-what directives came from the top? Also, it was not just one case, they were doing this for long, and doing it systematically, and doing it with no regards to moral, ethical or legal aspects. I am not sure all this went on without it being the culture from top to bottom.

To give slashdot some credit, I do see few words in between, such as "high-end", "performance" and "faster".

Why are you so anti-american and anti-capitalism?

That's how everthing was, before apple and apple fanbois started throwing shit at others. Case in point - the ridiculous legal war we are discussing here.

Holy shit! Mark, is that you?????!!!11

Facebook is almost already for old people and housewives with shitload of kids pictures to show to the old people.

Almost every human on planet = roughly 6 billion people (out of 6.7 billion estimated)

so 0.8 billion is almost same as 6 billion. Things you learn on slashdot these days.

how does it feel to constantly be Apple's bitch?

Making free internationals calls to the US from amsterdam over wifi calling over my dual core querty keyboard 4g phone is definitely not a good price or a good phone.

Let me know when you are done trolling and we will then talk facts.

And not everybody gives shit about itoys. Some of us like phones that can do more than just looking shiny.

+5 interesting my ass.

Wow. I knew RDF makes people stupid, but never knew it also turns the stupid into retards.
