Has any other company been copied as much as Apple?

I realize this may be a loaded topic, but between phones, tablets, and now laptops, its really hard to deny that other companies wait for Apple to put out something and then poorly knock it off in an effort to obtain a sliver of the pie.

Is there any other company in tech history that has had this issue?

As a kid in the 90s and early naughties, it seemed like Sony was the company of the decade but I don't recall everyone biting their products or attempting to ride their coattails.
