    Yeah but HP were using that style before Apple. Also:







    The HP Slate was announced before the iPad. You can't really tell who came up with the style first.

    Was the HP Slate announced before the MacBook Pro, with edge-to-edge glass and the same exact design as the HP Slate?

    If anything, it's Apple's designs that are copying, cosmetically, some PC designs. When the unibody MacBook Pro debuted, I thought it looked like a Windows PC.

    What Windows PC had edge-to-edge glass before the MacBook Pro? What Windows PC had full-size Chiclet keys before the original MacBook (I think Sony had Chiclet keys, but only on it's reduced-size keyboard, as far as I can recall)? What Windows PC had a 4" glass trackpad?



    Or did you think it "looked like a PC" because the bezel was black? And no other reason?
