“The U.S. Patent and Trademark Office last week opened a new exhibit honoring Steve Jobs at its museum in Alexandria, Virginia,” Eric Slivka reports for MacRumors.
“Located in the atrium of the office’s Madison Building headquarters, the free museum offers interactive exhibits, a portrait gallery and a theater,” Slivka reports. “The Steve Jobs exhibit consists of 30 giant iPhone-like display panels, most of which display the front pages from over 300 patent and trademark filings that bear Jobs’ name as inventor or co-inventor.”
Slivka reports, “The Steve Jobs exhibit at the USPTO Museum runs through January 15, 2012.”

Nice gesture, the kind of tribute I wasn’t expecting. No doubt it will let us see the evolution of his thinking and design decisions.
Ends January 15 2012….
I can’t make it back there to see it. Bummer.
If anyone does go… Please think of us unfortunate ones and take lots of pictures and Video 😉
(and post for us to see)
I just make an appearance… If I go, I will ask if MDN will post the pictures in a story.
Very nice… but who’s paying for this? Is it us, the taxpayer?
Of course, it’s us, silly….
However, it’s a better use of taxpayer dollars that funding doomed “green”energy companies of large campaign contributors.
actually it’s not…
http://www.invent.org/ is privately funded.
poke around the site, you can find the donor list, I saw it last night… it’s a ton of companies.

Elegant.
Dignified.
