Apple (AAPL)

Dan, et al. v. Apple Computer, Inc. et al.

Plaintiffs filed this purported class action on September 22, 2003 in Los Angeles Superior Court against the Company and other members of the industry on behalf of a nationwide class of purchasers of certain computer hard drives. The case alleges violations of Civil Code Section 17200 ("Unfair Competition"), the Consumer Legal Remedies Act ("CLRA") and false advertising related to the size of the drives. Plaintiffs allege that calculation of hard drive size using the decimal method misrepresents the actual size of the drive. The complaint seeks unspecified damages and other relief. The case is stayed pending resolution of whether the case will be considered "complex" and potentially a new judge assigned. The Company is beginning its investigation of these allegations.
