Bently's are nice. I would prolly get a Bently or a Rolls Royce if I didn't have a car... a Lambo or Aston Martin are too small to live in! :lol:

I don't think Apple does much (other than code) that can be copyrighted.

:lol:

I have wanted to buy a cheap van so many times just to throw a mattress in the back so I can sleep at school/work on my break times, lol.

Samsung's revenue in 2011 was something like 250BILLION, $1billion is hardly enough to "screw" them. Don't worry :D

Question is, are the potential profits in the USA enough to warrant continued sales of their devices (here), until new non-infringing designs come to market? They could easily pull their products, and continue selling overseas, where the courts don't bend over backwards for Apple.

By products you mean phones? I doubt they will pull their TVs and Fridges due to this. As for phones, I doubt it. If they leave the USA, they will lose market, out of sight, out of mind type of thing. If I were Samsung and I truly lost (even on appeal), I would just pay the license fees (if Apple has that) or just engineer around it but still sell whatever non-infringing phones until I quickly engineer a work around. I bet the engineers at Samsung are already working around the Apple patents as we speak if they haven't finished that already.

Obviously I meant their phone lines :lol:--they have practically no legal battles over television/fridge/micr​owave/appliance designs (at least, not publicized). This frenzy over smartphone copyrights is absolutely asinine.

On a related note, suck on it apple:

I saw that. The company has a chance since it is based in china but anywhere outside of China they would be destroyed :lol:
