Summary: The patent, that was drafted pro se by a doctor who wanted to improve the patient charting process without having to click on a pointer, was not invalid on the grounds that it should be interpreted in means plus function form (if it were so interpreted, it would likely have stayed dead). Had Apple been successful, many more software patents would have been put on life support.
