Apple Sued Over OS X Quick Boot

An anonymous reader writes "With a patent originally owned by LG in tow, a Florida based company called Operating Systems Solutions LLC recently filed suit against Apple claiming that OS X's use of quick booting infringes the aforementioned patent." The company in question is a bit suspicious — having formed very recently — and so others are speculating it was created for a proxy battle against Apple by LG.

    Well, Apple is getting taste of their own medicine now. and suddenly, its "out of control!!!!".

    Fuck them appholes. For once I am in favor of valid/invalid lawsuits. They started it and none deserves it more than them right now.

    Indeed, Apple added the one crucial missing ingredient: the Apple groupie.
