When Giants Fight

By now the Apple Samsung patent infringement suits has inflicted bruises along the very wide global battle front.




U.S. District Judge Lucy Koh sums it all up "“Samsung may have cut into Apple’s customer base somewhat, but there is no suggestion that Samsung will wipe out Apple’s customer base, or force Apple out of the business of making smartphones,”

With this, Apple was awarded $450.5 million, nearly half of the $1 billion damage awarded earlier before Samsung appealed.

Judge Lucy Koh of Korean descent was born 1968 in Washington DC. Awarded a Bachelor of Arts degree from Harvard College in Social Studies in 1990 and a Juris Doctorate from Harvard Law School in 1993.




The dust has hardly settled and Apple is now all set to launch  the 60-inch iTV this year. This is in direct confrontation with Samsung and LG 55-inch OLED TV expected in stores this year.
