If you needed another reason to visit the Ukraine!

Nokia looks to block US imports of Apple products in latest salvo over patents

Nokia looks to block US imports of Apple products in latest salvo over patents: "The U.S. International Trade Commission is looking into allegations that Apple is importing devices that infringe on Nokia patents, such as iPhones and iPads, a report said on Tuesday."

Of course, they wouldn't be imports if they were manufactured in the US like the Apple ][ was.

First Apple stock certificate awarded to Steve Jobs on sale for $195,000

First Apple stock certificate awarded to Steve Jobs on sale for $195,000: "As told by Zimet, shortly after the ouster in 1985, Sculley called for Jobs' office to be cleared out. The certificate on sale today was dumped in the trash along with other paraphernalia, but an industrious employee recovered the document and kept it for 31 years."

Glad I'm not John Sculley.

Vale, LOGO creator Seymour Papert, who taught us that code can be creative play • The Register

Vale, LOGO creator Seymour Papert, who taught us that code can be creative play • The Register: "Just over a decade ago some clever folks in Italy put together the Arduino, a credit-card sized board powered via USB and programmed with an IDE that borrows a lot from Processing, a programming language designed to make it easy to write interactive applications. As soon as I heard about Arduino, I ordered one, and not very long after Arduino number 435 arrived, I had it blinking an LED - the ‘Hello, World’ of hardware."

That's what I'm talking about blinky.
