Title: Leaked Patents show Apple may be Cloning "Frog-People!"
Post by: Xairbusdriver on August 28, 2008, 05:06:36 PM

There have been almost non-stop rumors of a coming Mac Tablet. Many even include "patent drawings." Here's another report but it's the comments that really make it worth reading!
<"Well I can't be too excited about this, since the first picture suggests that it won't exist until superintelligent frog people have taken over the earth." And: "whats w/ the freaky fingers in all these patent filings?">

Apparently some patent lawyer's second grade art teacher told him he was really good at drawing...and he has continued to believe her to this day!

I'm not sure my old fingers are up to being stretched as in those pictures!  I'm also sure my brain isn't up
to remembering all the "gestures!"

Gee ... if I'd had *those* fingers, I might have been able to play the piano.
