Anyone know if USB-c can be used to add external storage to ATV? If so, this will be a big deal.

Hopefully big companies like Apple will lose more cases like this to motivate them to support the patent system. We need to stop the war on non-practicing entities. It is destroying the patent system. If we don't change course soon, China will soon …

This is happening because the software industry is anti-patent. And Apple lets its defense lawyers trash the patent system just as much as any other big tech company. I've been complaining about this for years. Nobody likes to pay royalties on paten…

I've been preaching for years that the anti-patent movement is a bad thing. What goes around comes around.

Sounds similar to cold-spraying to form metal parts, but in this case you spray a liquid metal instead of accelerate a nanoparticle at high velocity to fuse it to the forming substrate. Spraying liquid metal is probably much more amenable to use in…

Most of you anti-patent people are naive about what is really going on in the IP world. You are pawns to giant corporations who use litigation and public sentiment to avoid paying a small inventor for their inventions. Yes there are a few bad trol…

By the way, the fact that Apple paid 8 million for a license suggests to me that Apple may have been complicit in this litigation. That amount is just what the company needed to enforce its patents. And the company out suing everyone for patent in…

Podcasting, which takes its name from Apple's iPod, first gained popularity in the early 2000s as digital audio hardware proliferated. The medium has since spawned a small cottage industry, enabling successful podcasters to generate money to offset…

Note that the 5K sizing is missing from the chart. Seems pretty obvious to me that this press release is really old (i.e., predates the release of the iMac 5k). I'd bet that Apple originally planned on doing an iMac8K and then switched to iMac5k. …
