As I understand it, who invented overlapping windows would only be an issue here if PATENT infringement was part of the case. Since the case is about COPYRIGHT infringement, inventor status is irrelevant. Ownership of the expression of the ideas (protected by copyright) is at issue, not ownership of the ideas (not protected by copyright). Period. BTW, this is a layman's opinion, and definately NOT meant as an expression of Apple's stand on the case. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + Greg Marriott + AppleLink: Greg + + Just Some Guy + + + "My phone is always busy" + Internet: Greg@AppleLink.Apple.Com + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ + Apple Computer, Inc. + + 20525 Mariani Ave, MS-46z, Cupertino, CA 95014 + + (408)974-busy + ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
