Well, sure, because he had to wait, as court decorum would require, until he was asked:
"Koh frequently remarked on the similarity between each company's tablets. At one point during the hearing, she held one black glass tablet in each hand above her head, and asked Sullivan if she could identify which company produced which.
"Not at this distance your honor," said Sullivan, who stood at a podium roughly ten feet away.
"Can any of Samsung's lawyers tell me which one is Samsung and which one is Apple?" Koh asked. A moment later, one of the lawyers supplied the right answer."

Regardless, there's absolutely no reason why even an older woman attorney should not be able to tell the difference.
You must not be married. There are all sorts of possible reasons. At the least, she might have vainly not have been wearing the necessary glasses. Or, like many women, Koh and the lawyer just don't see the difference in devices like men do.

And, yet, the jury who saw all the evidence said that Samsung owes Apple more than a billion dollars. So please explain why your unfounded opinion is more valid than theirs?
Strawman. No one's talking about the jury. We're talking about that Samsung review document. The jury didn't base their verdict on a line per line review of that document, nor did they issues a line per line analysis.
I studied each line and compared it to what Samsung actually did. If you don't want to believe me, then please do the same and tell us all exactly what pages you think Samsung actually implemented and that were unique to Apple. Thanks.

You my friend, are hiding from the truth. It has been proven that Samsung has intentionally gone over Apple's iPhone and iPad with a microscope.
And you sir, are not following the thread 
, which has nothing to do with that other trial. This is a new one, concentrating on software patents such as slide to unlock, universal search, and links in emails.
My response was to TS's proposal that the only reason people want shorter limits on software patents, is so they can "copy" them quicker. Copying almost never comes into the equation. It's instead all about who had that time and money to file for a patent first.

In American English we use the indefinite article to denote the thing referred to is nonspecific. I think that one is an oddity in British English because the same rule applies. In the US excluding the determiner would imply that the university was known and obvious but not specified, like if someone says, "Mom will be pissed when he gets home" as opposed to, "we need a mom to help with the field trip."
