Apple patents

In all the noise about this WinExpose program, someone mentioned that Apple had a patent on Exposé's functionality. So I searched through the patent database. I didn't find that one, but there are a few interesting ones:

6,659,516: The retracting locking latch on PowerBook G4s

6,658,577: "Breathing status LED indicator". You know that pulsing sleep light on your PowerBook? Patented.

6,574,096: "Use of Titanium in a Notebook Computer". Um...

Yes, WinExpose provides the same functionality as Apple's Expose only for the Windows based machine. Now They changed product name to WinPlosion and domain to http://www.winplosion.com
