Hey!!!
Don't forget that Apple are still in the courts over the stupid mistake of
suing the Beatles company Apple for the use of their trade name. (The name
Apple was licenced by the computer company FROM the Beatles company, and as it
turns out, the licence had lapsed and was being used without authorisation.)
As I understand it, the suit is for $10,000,000 +.

They really need to BOMB someone in their legal dept!!
