Apple Threatens Bistro Over "AppleADay" Name

itwbennett writes "In today's edition of David v. Goliath, Apple lawyers have sent cease and desist letters to a tiny health food restaurant in Luxembourg named AppleADay. For their part, the owners of AppleADay, with help from a lawerly friend, have promised that they would continue to sell only food, not computers. Of course, Apple knows as well as anyone that promises are made to be broken, having famously promised Apple Corps, the Beatles' production company, they would never get into the music business."

    They're not "assholes." They have to exert effort in defending their trademark or risk losing it.

    Notice the submitter is the very ITWorld article who wrote the article. He submitted it to Slashdot knowing a "David v. Goliath" story would rile up the readers and generate posts exactly like yours.
