Entrepreneur Engineering - Apple Vs Samsung.

Well, this is my final semester in UNSW,
I did chose to take it a little easier,
dropping most heavy engineering subjects for the slightly relaxed Business courses.

On the recent class , I've honestly found that the topic covered was fairly interesting as it was regarding Samsung's and Apple battle for patent rights.

Check out this link.

From my perspective, i greatly find that the whole issue in the court battles is just apples way of showing a ridiculously large amount of force...

Many would disagree to my point...
but..
lets go alittle back in time...
when it was
Apple vs HP...

that was a pretty sad event from my perspective as HP had to withdraw its product from many places around the world.... Causing losses so high which was almost an under blow to HP giants technology sector.

Going back to our main agenda, Apple and Samsung,
most of my concerns could be explained in this comic.


Suing on the base of patent reasons is just a little off.
As the patent war went into topics such as the single finger swipe which apple claimed to have patent.
and the multi touch functionality of the screen.

It seems not worth fighting for as the patent itself in my opinion is rubbish.... imagine, if someone did patent the qwerty keyboard, and because of that patent, only companies whom purchased licence agreements are allowed to used that design...

wouldn't that just cause mass confusion in the consumer market?
imagine every company has a different computer keyboard for the laptops/desktops.

Just not right.. isn't it?

That's exactly what that single patent is doing....
it's not "Design" It's in humans nature to do things... 
even on a regular piece of paper, to flip it you pull it from a page to another...
it physics... and not something that was only created by programmed function.....

Furthering on this claim, It is obvious that apple wants to achieve market dominance/superiority in the Smart Phone Sector.

If not, they would have already pursue the hundreds of companies which made a fool out of apple products.
here are a few links on this topic that i'm pretty sure would excite you more ....

Link 1 - Apples Win Ushers an era of nastiness.
Link 2 - The Hi-phone 5
Link 3 - This Phone is relatively better than the iPhone....


Many Will disagree on my basis saying that apple 

"CAN'T ENTER CHINESE MARKETS TO REMOVE THE PESTS"


Would you not agree that a mega company like apple would be able to "delete" its competition...
why didn't they just do what they did to Samsung to the little Chinese Counterparts?

Just cause they don't see the threat like Samsung would...

I'm not hating on Apple Corp, as I have owned several of their products.

This does change future events in the coming markets.

and Samsung didn't really loose....

nor Apple truly won...

but one thing is for sure... is that the 


"Consumers loose"
