Windows 7: Apple loses U.K. Samsung appeal; must run 'apology' ads

This is an interesting ruling. Puts Apple in it's place.

Thanks whs. It's hard for Apple to win such a trivial case when they don't own the courts. Apple will be jumping around from country to country to try and win another case. Using the courts is Apples number 2 resource of income is my belief.

I think you are right. Outside the US they cannot win any courtcase. Makes you think about the American court system.

I think the main problem is in the US jury system. You have Judy and Joe sitting in the jury who do not understand the real issues and make a judgement based on emotions. And the Apple lawyers know that and take advantage of it.

In other countries the court rulings are done by professionals. That gives a better chance that proper rulings are being made in complex technology issues.

I do believe that in high tech cases professionals would be the best judges. I don't know whether the last case with Smasung was a jury or not. Sometimes it's a panel of judges. How much they know of high tech is questionable.
