The Perfect MacBook Mini: Leak, Concept, or Fake?

The Perfect MacBook Mini: Leak, Concept, or Fake?
I don't know what this is and I don't care. It may be a MacBook Mini concept. Or a crazy leak. Or just a perfect fake. Whatever it is, it's beautiful. I want one badly.

Two Legal Actions against Apple in Australia

Apple is currently facing two legal actions in Australia:

  • The first one is linked to the Mac Pro trademark. Apple filed a worldwide trademark protection for naming its Pro desktop hardware. However, a company is also using this name as for its business activity: Macpro Computers since 1983, however it did not filed it as a trademark at that time, but it is intending to do it now. So, the local justice will have to decide which companies holds the right for the Mac Pro trademark in Australia.
  • The second one is related to a story originating from 2005 and the business death of an Australian Mac reseller, Buzzle. The legal officer dealing with the bankruptcy process reported that Apple kept shipping hardware to Buzzle whereas its business life was already so damaged that it was almost impossible to save it. In other words, Apple was actively contributing so should now drop its claims for 57 millions AUD bills. The judge will give its decision on April 27th.
