Down with the spring loaded folders patent

[NoTiG]

Im tired of these patents which are idiotic. Consider spring loaded folders for example. the same EXACT Thing can be found in menus. Menus are the same exact thing as folders. And when you click on a menu you can navigate through the subdirectories by just hovering your mouse. This can be seen in any operating system... all the way back to probably god knows what. So why is there a patent on spring loaded folders? which are the exact same thing. you hover your mouse over it and navigate through the menus.

Some patents are just wrong. I hope ubuntu fights this one. Not that its all that important i guess. but on principal!
