    We are still suffering the effects of bad software patents. Tons of garbage patents were granted in the form of “common everyday thing, but on a computer.” A notable one was the digital shopping cart that was eventually invalidated.

      I believe Microsoft has a patent for launching different functions if a button is double clicked versus a single click.

        What if they just single click twice, instead of double-clicking?
