Flawed Macbook LCD? Apple faces Lawsuit!
May 23rd, 2007 by Annkur
Apple Inc has been slapped with a lawsuit in California for making false claims about MacBook and MacBook Pro displays.
Filed on 3 May in a California, US, state court, the lawsuit charges Apple with falsely advertising MacBook and MacBook Pro displays as able to produce “millions” of colors.
“The reality is … the displays are only capable of displaying the illusion of millions of colors through the use of a software technique referred to as ‘dithering’,” the suit claims.
The company is also charged with violating the Unfair Competition Law and the Consumer Legal Remedies Act with its failure to address and rectify the situation. The two Californians, Fred Greaves and Dave Gatley who filed the suit want to stop Apple and the other defendants from continuing to represent the computers as being capable of displaying millions of colors.
They also seek damages representing the difference between the price paid for the computers and their actual worth, the loss of professional productivity, other forms of damages and costs.
