Let's face reality

I agree with Andrew - Google have definitely driven a bus through the copyright law with this case. But walk back 35 years ... Bill Gates brought the rights to MSDOS from Seattle Computer Products who had directly copied the API from CP/M - there is a fine line between copying and reimplementing code.

It will be interesting to see where this case goes.
