Apple chases "look and feel" monopoly

From Francesca Freed:

Apple has sued Samsung for their Galaxy tablet, claiming it violates trade dress copyright, because of its rounded corners and the "colorful square icons with rounded corners." Apple is fighting for the idea that, once you have a good idea, you should be rich forever. This comes shortly after their lawsuit against Amazon for using the term "app store." It seems that Apple is disappointed that they can't hold a monopoly on all new technology.
