Chang) Organization: Pacific * Bell, San Ramon, CA Lines: 11 Does anyone have a copy or has anyone read the actual brief that Apple filed in court? I may have missed a previous posting, but a NOT too reliable source suggested a different reason than the same-old "Apple vs. Xerox" argument. I heard that the suit may be more than just a copyright protection of Apple's user-interface. That HP's New Wave may have too many similarities to Apple's FILE system, including naming of the system files, and that OS/2 PM has similiar programs called: Paint and Write. -- Unix mail: {backbone}!pacbell!kimman
