I read the same article.  I was suprised that Apple hasn't threatened
with legal action.  Didn't they threaten to sue some IBM-PC
developers a couple of years back when they created a software clone
of the Mac Toolbox running under MS-Windows?

It might have been before Windows and they may have been after them
for look and feel violations.  I just don't remember.  Does any one
else?
