I'm not sure that the Beatles deserve your anger. I'm not sure you know the
whole story, but from what I understand, the original lawsuit could have
forced Apple (Mac) to stop using the name "Apple" altogether. However, the
Beatles agreed to allow Jobs/Apple to continue using the Apple name as long
as they did not get into the music business and ... for a tidy sum of money.
Jobs/Apple *agreed* and has clearly broken that agreement. If anyone is in
the wrong, it is Apple (Mac). At least that is how is seems to me. A deal is
a deal. Isn't it?

I don't think how much money Paul McCartney has really has any relevance.
IMO.

With that said, I hope that some further agreement is reached this time,
'cause I really like my Logic. ;)
