    Edited: I see soft key explained it.

    To sum up for GG, the idea of a server running on the same machine was around long before 1996. I guarantee you the inventor was aware of this. Even beginner computer science students would know this. Very poor attemp to try and confuse what a server really is.

    No, they’re completely different. You are wrong. End of discussion.

    Protection of ideas, yes.

    One expires in 20 years, the other lasts until the heat death of the Universe. That’s a little bit different.

    No need to sum it up for me. It won't matter what you think was meant by the claim Eric. Won't matter what I think it is or Softkey thinks it is either. The court will now be the one determining what the inventor meant. I personally think the chances are that the court will end up a whole lot closer to what Posner thought than what Apple would prefer.
