Umm Apple copies sony on putting in the web cam int there computer.

Really come on think about it for a sec. The entire camra in the computer was NOT apple idea they got it from I believe sony.

Also it is just the next evolution of web camras (Which apple copies any how). Apple copy the monitor mounting which was already done by logic and others. Moving it to the monitor it self was jsut the next logical step for it.

Please stop screaming bloody murder anytime some does something like apple. Please realise that they could of had the idea on there own and just took them longer to implement it. Or choose to hold on it and not rush it. Dell can not move as fast as apple because they are so much larger. Bigger company move slower in putting in new ideas because it is harder for them to change.

A very similar topic was worn out to death (arguably before it started) here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=208767) not too long ago.

And as much as I hate polls you'd probably do better with one of those instead of smileys... not sure if there is a post restriction on making polls though.

Regarding your last option for your poll... Bill Gates really has nothing to do with the cameras on Dell' computers. I believe Michael Dell is the man you're looking to see engaged in fisticuffs..

OK, thanks. I had NO idea Sony did that. Everyone else, ignore this post please as it is fine. By the way Timepass, I didn't scream bloody murder, I was actually just wondering (if Apple did the built in camera thing first instead of Sony) if Apple had a patent on it.

Things like this start getting to you after a while. Just because you maybe didnt but that statement was in general about anytime some one remotely copies apple the comminty as a whole starts screaming about it and saying copy copy and doesnt reliease that 9 times out of 10 apple is coping some else and making it larger. Or can not see that they could of come up with it on there own.

It gets annoying after a while.
