Apple - The new bully boy?

this always seems to happen when companies grow too big and get a quasi-monopoly... Maybey the need a shot across the bow, worked good for Microsoft.

They did the same with my Samsung phone. It has a capacitive touch screen and just because Apple has patented the 2-finger use in the USA - which doesn't mean **** in Europe - they never dared to enable it here.

It was similar with Samsungs smartphone UI, Apple also went on against this.
Looks like they have some vendetta, which is a little odd as Samsung is still a chip purveyor for Apple.
