    Sounds looney, sure. But, I went to his web site. The main image links to a page with links to supposed patents. Claims like a computer interface for a data base that lets you find music through such things as categories or artists names. Has anyone here looked at those?

    Don't waste your time with that one- he still believes and defends his foolishness that this decade has over a year and a month left.

On that note, why do people with Tourette?s always blurt out profanities? Why not random compliments?









    Good point!



    Stop picking on Teckstud! LoL!

    Call him crazy but the guy is a friggin' genius. Not only did he invent products that took the world by storm decades later, but he worked out the naming and pricing in advance as well. Steve Jobs is hailed as CEO of the Decade when, in fact, all he did was execute this dude's master plan. Not only that but he was smart enough to have the friggin' FBI keep an eye on things so he could prove his case when, as he must have predicted, someone (Apple) stole credit for everything. When he brings those FBI records to court, AAPL is going to crater. (Wouldn't it be mind-blowing if this turned out to be true :-)

    Soon he'll be suing the FBI when they "claim" they have no recollection of his deal with them.

    Or as Marcy Rhoades (from Married WIth Children) says after Al Bundy gets visited by Aliens, "Isn't it funny how UFOs always visit idiots?"

    she has no recollection of any conversations regarding the iPod



    OMG! They've erased the conversations from her brain! This is bigger than I thought!

    Collect his paycheck that is. The movie and music industry is filled with similar stories of people having to bring suite to get their paycheck. So it is unfortunate that somebody in that situation getslumped in to an article that is so focused on another issue altogether.

    In fact I wouldn't be surprised to find AI in a law suit over smearing by association. One needs to be real careful about how these to entirely separate issues are being presented.

    Good grief. Should AI look in their closet and under the bed before turning out the lights and getting under the covers as well?

    Mr. Wakefields "trade secrets" for the iPod, iPhone, iTunes and other Apple products is all the more impressive when you concider that in 1989 Steve Jobs had been out of Apple for four years. At the time Mr. Jobs was busy with NEXT and Pixar and had nothing to do with Apple what so ever.



    Exactly why Mr. Wakefield would have Sarah Jessica Parker see Steve Jobs about ideas for future Apple products in 1989 is somewhat confusing, seeing as Steve Jobs at the time was not heading any company with the slightest interest in consumer electronics. Not to mention that the whole "iName" scheme was a derivative from the original iMac, which wasn't to occur until 1997, some eight years later.



    But I guess Mr. Wakefields uncanny prophetic powers also enabled him to predict that Steve Jobs would return to Apple as interim CEO seven years down the road? Remarkable in deed.

    Indeed I bet it is, this guy has a history of filing pro per lawsuits against big companies.

    I hope you are kidding otherwise provide a source.



    Anyway I wonder when society should have the right to tell people to stop wasting their money by continually filing these kinds of suits. I mean he has filed against Cordis, Disney, Nintendo and now Apple. At some point you'd think the court system would have had enough no?

    It does, for the same reason the 21st century began on January 1, 2001.



    Given that the Yankees spend 33% more than any other team in baseball on salaries and almost as much as Pittsburgh, Florida, San Diego, Oakland and Baltimore put together, one could argue they're actually rather unsuccessful.

    This is what you get when you have more lawyers in a State like Michigan than in all of Japan.



    And as long as they are kept being fed by this kind of BS, they will be like ants.



    Somewhat off topic, this is also the reason why Obama's health plan will fail so long as there are lawyers who get it done that people can sue (and win) doctors and hospitals for millions and millions of dollars. The amount that people can be sued for needs to be capped first.



    I don't think I'll live long enough to see that happen...

    Just wait until I get my law suit filed - that guy will be in serious trouble - because I had all those ideas in 1979 - and had the CIA follow me around to document things (all except the parts where I was wearing my aluminium foil hat - and at first I had Bob Crane working as my informant but we all know the FBI assassinated him to dis-credit my case - so I had to switch to Ashton Kucher - only trouble is that every time I try to file my suit the lawyer just thinks he got punk'd - I have got to find me a better informant - maybe Matt Damon is available...

    Here we go again- mixing Apples with Oranges. I'm talking about the term "of the decade" and you start talking "century" just like "he who's name shall dare not be mentioned".
