Ep. 14: Apple sues Microsoft
from Frontier Podcast by Gun.io
Homogenous design didn't happen overnight; there's a long and storied history of operating systems looking the same. And today, Grey and Faith talk about the very first instance of Apple suing Microsoft over design copyrights. While the suit didn't go Apple's way, thanks to some missteps by their legal team, it did have ripple effects–like pointing and clicking with a mouse becoming a ubiquitous feature. Hosted on Acast.
