Hold your horses here, something's rotten in the vicinity of Denmark. Try to backtrace that article any further than AppleInsider, see a problem?
I can find no evidence of this case on
Apple's News. Additionally, no article by this name appears on
Bloomberg (Googled extensively, using
Bloomberg+Tiger,
Bloomberg+Apple, and
Bloomberg+Tigerdirect. Additionally, it should be noted that TigerDirect.com
lays no claim to anything BUT TigerDirect. Until we get something better than the word of Kasper, it sounds to me like someone with a personal vendetta. Besides, if you check
the USPTO information, TigerDirect is not named and can only be conjecture - unless somebody cares to call the attorney-of-record (John Donald, assuming this has not also been falsified) to verify.
