Fujitsu doet gezellig mee met de all-in-one trend die door de Apple iMac werd ingezet. De nieuwe MFV DeskPower Pliche 232 lijkt, afgezien van de kleurstelling, ook nog eens errug veel op een AaiMek. Het is te verwachten dat Steve en zijn vrienden hiertegen actie gaan ondernemen, net zoals dat eerder tegen eMachines en Future Power gebeurde. The Register serveert de soep:
Fujistu has become the latest PC vendor to hop onto the iMac bandwagon, with a machine that, like eMachines eOne and Future Power's ePower, apes Apple's all-in-one multi-hued desktop to such an extent that it could land the Japanese giant in court.[...] Such a similarity between the iMac and PCs from eMachines and Future Power this summer set Apple's lawyers onto both companies in their home territory of Taiwan, in the US and, in eMachines' case, against its Japanese distributor, Sotec.
Subsequently, eMachines modified its machine at Sotec's insistence and eliminated the eOne's blue and white two-tone colour scheme in favour of a uniform gloss-grey look -- a colour scheme that, in some respects, resembles Apple's newest iMac, the high-end iMac DV Special Edition. No wonder Apple Japan is believed to be deciding whether the machine still infringes Apple's trademarks, as the Mac maker claimed the original eOne did.
Perhaps Fujitsu can now expect a similar reaction from Apple.
