On
24th november more
than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in
California. Initially, the security company that protects the facility said the
trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO)
received a call from Samsung CEO explaining that they will pay $1
billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in
this way.
The funny part is
that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung
is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way
they deem best.
his dirty but
genius geek troll play is a new headache to Appleexecutives
as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it
is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will
accept all the coins.
Lee Kun-hee,
Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not
going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want
to play dirty, they also know how to do it.
You can use your
coins to buy refreshments at the little machine for life or melt the coins to
make computers, that’s not my problem, I already paid them and fulfilled the
law.
A total of 20
billion coins, delivery hope to finish this week.
Let’s see how
Apple will respond to this.
