Apple vs Big Apple
In ironic copycat fashion, the champions of open source software aren't equally liberal about the use of their fruity logo. Following suit from the Beatles' Apple Records, who Apple Computers was in drawn-out disputes over trademark rights for decades, Apple is now trying to stop the City of New York from using the apple logo in a city-wide green campaign.
You would think after their previous defensive litigation, they would relax a bit about copyright issues. I guess the apple really doesn't fall far from the tree...
