Apple class-action settleme... |
The list of eligible claimants in the settlement of a lawsuit against Apple has expanded, according to an administrative firm. Rosenthal & Co. has issued notices in the wake of Gordon v. Apple, which alleged that power adapters shipped with iBooks and PowerBooks could fray and spark, or simply fail to work. Although Apple has denied any fault in the matter, it is said to have agreed to a settlement in order to avoid expenses.The expanded settlement includes a larger number of computers, the list of which has been published online. People applying for compensation must use a specific claim form, and have paid for a replacement adapter; if the adapter failed within the first year, Apple must have denied an attempt to repair or replace an adapter under warranty. |
