Re: [luau] NEWS: New Copyprotected CD's destroy iMacs

What would be the basis for the law suite?  Who would be suing who, and over what?  The simple solution is to just not buy an iMac, and don't buy disks on the copy protection list.  That will solve the entire problem without any litigation.

Apple.  You lost a customer.

How are they pandering to the content industry?

Their warranty clause might pave the way for a class-action suit on behalf

of Mac Users against the RIAA.  Repairs are expensive, and someone has to
pay...

Their own web page says that the computer is designed to support these copy
protection methods.  This is grounds for a lawsuit.
