Apple acting aggressively, continually pushing for more and
harsher actions against Samsung - Samsung meanwhile playing
mainly defence and trying to limit and bring balance instead
of going for advantage at every turn.

I'm assuming they thought the more measured approach would
find favour with the judge and jury, however wild
aggression seems to have been the better tactic in the short
term.

It will be interesting to see if sanity prevails long term.

Chess is a complex game but Go appears simple but while simpler to learn is much
more difficult to master. It would not be the first time that a apparently weak
victim has turned out to be the superior strategist and battle winner.

Apple's Rubber Band Patent Tentatively Rejected on Reexamination ~pj Updated

The rope-a-dope is not just a boxing term anymore. Perhaps Samsung was allowing
Apple to walk over them in the beginning expecting prior art to save them (a
dangerous tactic, but a valid one). Granted, it didn't work thanks to Hogan,
because prior art was ignored altogether.

COPO
Authored by: Anonymous on Wednesday, October 24 2012 @ 12:58 PM EDT
Maybe agressive worked for Apple in the courtroom, but the consumers were not
quarantined as well as they thought...

The Court Of Public Opinion is where this will cost them. Consumers register
their verdict by buying (or not), and Samsung's sales numbers say the COPO jury
is far less favorable than Hogan's sheeple.
