I agree that not everything should be patented, but I was responding
to the person who was suggesting that all patents for GUI's is
wrong; I wasn't responding specifically to Apple's patents. 

BTW, in patent law it is better to patent everything and find out
later it won't hold up then to miss a good patent. Let the courts &
lawyers decide if it is patentable. It is just too risky in today's
market not to at least try to patent original ideas. "Obvious" is a
very very subjective term.
