Apple Settles With Source of Tiger Leak

5 Comments
While it continues to pursue lawsuits against those who leaked information on its upcoming products, Apple has settled one suit with an individual who leaked a pre-release copy of "Tiger," the next release of Mac OS X. Apple sued Doug Steigerwald, a student, in late December for sharing the beta code.
Steigerwald will pay an undisclosed sum of money to Apple, but is still under investigation by the federal government for his actions. "Although I did not mean to do any harm, I realize now that my actions were wrong and that what I did caused substantial harm to Apple and for that I am truly sorry," Steigerwald said in a prepared statement.
