Me too. 

I know this is off the subject of Amiga, so I'll keep it short.
I think I know why Apple is suing HP about the user interface...
Someone mentioned that Apple wants to add hot links to there new OS, and that
HP already has them. 

Well, If apple wins, then HP can't use their User interface and Apple can go 
ahead and not have any competition. If HP wins then there is no Issue of LOOK
and FEEL, and HP can't sue them for using the hot links. 

Apple wins both ways. Sneaky little devils aren't they :-)
