What's all this got to do with Apple? Stifling innovation, that's what. Block the little building block parts so the bigger picture can't be made by others.
What?
I...what?
They trademarked a NAME. That is not stifling innovation! This is not a patent.
Look, i can think up my own names on the spot:
Touch
Connect
Impact
Powertouch
When Apple trademarked MacBook Pro, they were not stifling the laptop industry.
