really sad to hear this...Apple is slowly becoming as bad as Microsoft....a big bully...either u play by their rules or they run you out of business. Shouldn't countries in EU be doing something similar to what they did to MS

Ohh... our "beloved" commission will surely penalize anyone, but there is no Apple vs. "European Producer" legal lawsuit, so...
Btw, apple has a minor position on european market. Here in czech republic there is no official distributor of apple products (although there is an apple.cz website, shop and so on, and they say they are the only one legal distributor, this company is not apple, not even owned by a czech, but some unknown company registered in british virgin islands).
There is a major dist. network in germany and poland, as well as austria, little in france, but no more - others are just companies working with apple products as side business.
So why should EU commission bother anyway?

You just gained 100 coolness points in my book.

Anyway, I think it's funny that they are filing for bankruptcy. Just goes to show how hard it is to fight a legal battle with a company as big as Apple or anyone else for that matter.

What happens if you buy one of their computers and then they go out of business? The warranty is for three years, so would they honor it, or would you be SOL?

I might send them an email and ask.
