A group of Apple Computer resellers and consumers has banded together to file a class action suit against the company.
In the suit, filed in the California Superior Court in San Francisco, the resellers and consumers accuse Apple of not honoring warranties, misappropriating trade secrets from its resellers, unlawful business practices and packaging old kit as new, among other charges. Apple, which recently filed suit against three online journalists it claimed had leaked Apple"s secrets, now finds itself on the receiving end of such a suit, with the resellers claiming the company has been using confidential reseller information in order to boost sales at Apple"s own stores and cut the resellers out.
