Apple finally catches up with Steve Jobs

When Steve Jobs decided to name his company Apple, after the Beatles Record Label, little did he imagine that they would be at loggerheads with each other a few decades later...

Excerpt:


    Apple Corps Ltd., the company formed in 1968 by the Beatles to manage the group's business interests and serve as the band's music label, issued a brief statement saying it had filed court papers in a London High Court in July seeking penalties and an injunction against the computer maker.

    The complaint addressed the use of the word Apple and Apple logos in the computer company's downloading of music from the Internet, Apple Corps said.
