WIred reported that a Texas resident, one Chandra Sanders, is suing Apple because her iMac only displays 262,144 colors instead of "millions of colors" which the Apple control panels claim. The suit was filed in the US Northen District of California. The Apple monitors, according to Ms. Sanders claim " use technological tricks that involve showing many similar shades at high speeds to create the illusion of the desired shade." Oh, horrors, Ms. Sanders. The plaintiff (To my knowledge she is not a plain TIFF - pun intended) says those things can cause "crippling" problems for people editing video content because the colors don't always appear smooth. News of this broke on March 31 or it would be a great April Fool's joke.
Apple does not normally comment on pending legislation but on this one they should respond like the court should respond and laugh this nonsense out of court.
