Actually, even the voltages within a computer's memory circuits are still just
a
representation of the program. Granted, that is the most useful
representation
as the computer can use it to follow the specified logical
steps, but even a
program loaded in memory and running does not exist in any
physical sense.
It's just a representation of an abstraction.
Of
course the software-patent trolls will never admit that; they reject all facts
and
logic that refute their position. We, the experts on computers and
programming,
have explained in exhaustive and tedious detail why, based on
our comprehensive
analysis of the principles and causes, software is not
suitable material and must
not be patented. They, experts in nothing at all,
based on a superficial view of the
effects, "just know" that we're
all wrong and the facts, logic and principles do not
matter. There "hasta be
sumpthin' in thar" to make the computer do things they
don't understand, and
it has to be patented.
