Anyone remember the lame "look and feel" lawsuit Apple launched against Microsoft in the 1990's? Apple popularized some of the very attacks that today's patent trolls are using against them (and everyone else) today. Apple has also resorted to the same crybaby tactics (more effectively than vs Microsoft) against Samsung. Yet they continue to cry foul when someone dares to use something from their own bag of dirty tricks against them.

Article should define PAE (never use an acronym without defining it, that should be SOP).
