The last time I saw this was in Scientific American and I don't remember if
culture was examined although it is quite possibly cultural (left->right reading

handedness, and we all know which way would be biased toward if they didn't
bother checking that ;-).

Assuming they don't have patents in Sweden or even Canada (I have no idea),
someone there could handle that part of the UI ...?  They did win for look and
feel of the physical machinery of the iMac, which the courts hopefully continue
to think is a different ball of wax than the GUI.
