Apple is synonymous with upper echelon design, but very little is known about the company's design process. Most of Apple’s own employees aren’t allowed inside Apple’s fabled design studios.

1965. Steven Paul Jobs a tout juste dix ans. C’est un enfant farceur, intelligent et déjà passionné d’électronique. Il rencontre au lycée un autre Steve, Steve Wozniak, lui aussi passionné. En lisant un article du magazine Esquire, ils apprennent comment fabriquer un appareil permettant de passer gratuitement des appels longue distance en fraudant les compagnies téléphoniques. Les deux amis décident d’en produire et de les vendre 150 dollars dans leur lycée. C’est le début de la marque à la pomme qui s'étendra sur toute la surface du globe.

(MoneyWatch) Yet another technology pundit has lauded Apple (AAPL) for patenting a widely used feature in mobile devices that ostensibly will let the consumer electronics giant pound tablet and smartphone rivals into submission. Looking at a recent design patent awarded to Apple, the New York Times' Nick Bilton declares that the company "now owns the page turn." The "turn" is the animation that makes it look as though you're turning a physical page when reading an e-book or some other electronic document.

If you want to know just how broken the patent system is, just look at patent D670,713, filed by Apple and approved this week by the United States Patent Office. This design patent, titled, “Display screen or portion thereof with animated graphical user interface,” gives Apple the exclusive rights to the page turn in an e-reader application. Yes, that’s right. Apple now owns the page turn. You know, as when you turn a page with your hand. An “interface” that has been around for hundreds of years in physical form. I swear I’ve seen similar animation in Disney or Warner Brothers cartoons.

Every new Apple web presence does new things using the web platform.

One delicious anecdote from the recent biography Steve Jobs, by Walter Isaacson, involved the Apple founder’s decorating problem: It took the Jobs family eight years to buy a sofa. “We spent a lot of time asking ourselves, What is the purpose of a sofa?” Jobs’ wife told the biographer. To Jobs, the choice about which sofa to buy and where to place it in the home could not be made without a full understanding of exactly what role the object should play in their lives.
