Another douche maneuver by Apple. A 17-year old kid designs his own conversion kit to make a white iPhone enclosure, so Apple hunts him down and sues him. Actually, since he was a minor, they went after his parents. They're also looking to rape his child when it's born. Story in the articles section, and linked below:
Apple sues teenager for white iPhone conversion kits
He was purchasing illegal parts from a factory worker. These were legitimate parts that Apple paid for. They were not seeing a dime of it. So, I believe that Apple had every right to sue this kid. I am sure the factory worker in china was fired too.
Eh, Apple has a way better designed OS and iOS than anything Windows.
Don't know if you're trolling or just an iDiot, but it needs to be pointed out that you made incorrect statements either on purpose or out of ignorance. You should post a source if I you want to even begin to try correcting my previous statement. Like this:

So the kid bought parts from Foxconn, then packaged and sold them as a white conversion kit. Apple's legal claim was based on his not being authorized to sell Apple merchandise.
As for your second point, thanks for your opinion, but I already assumed you were an iTard. I'm guessing you don't know how to use computers very well either. Now I'm not saying every Apple user is completely clueless, but that I feel confident in making a judgment call on any particular Apple user's technological deficiency based on their first remarks about Apple products. It was not based on him stealing parts paid for by Apple, as you suggested.
Apple is just focusing on what matters most to them, absolute control of their image. Don't you love how everyone's phone looks the same, yeah I bet you do.
Hi, I'm a regular. Your game is weak

I never said he stole them from Apple. I am saying he purchased parts from Foxcon Apple already paid to have them manufactured. Umm, as being a third year computer science major. I would like to think I am pretty well versed in computers. Just because I use a much better OS than Windows, doesn't mean I am retarded.
If he physically obtains parts that Apple paid for, whether or not he paid for them, then there's still an unresolved case of theft. This isn't what happened, period.
Get a degree before trying to take credit for being adept, the fact that you're flunking out of college doesn't really help you. You're hopeful, so I guess that's working for you? Apple fanboism and inability to comprehend news stories disagree with your last statement.
Says the boy who used the words suck, cum and rape in the thread title.![]()
Now go away.
Neither is discussing about Apple but we're already up to post 48.
"Computer games don't affect kids; I mean if Pac-Man affected us as kids, we'd all be running around in darkened rooms, munching magic pills and listening to repetitive electronic music"
I actually agree, even though I created this thread. I was in a nasal pinch mood over someone letting themselves get screwed over by Apple merchandise one day and wanted to rant in an anti-apple thread. I didn't find one specifically, so I created one. Although, no real need to post about Apple hear, which is why I made it a lounge thread. I tend to mostly post off topic myself.
