The posted article did not give a quote that appeared in our local paper (attributed to Steve Wozniak). Referring to Apple Corps (this is not an exact quote, but as close as I remember): "There's probably just a bunch of lawyers left over there. They'll sue Apple and Apple will pay them". Does it seem like the only people to receive any benefit from all of this is the lawyers, judges, court clerks, etc. ?? I certainly can tell the difference between a Beatles record and a Macintosh!!
