Apple has scored another legal victory today, this time in a case concerning defective logic boards in
MacBooks sold since May of 2010. The case was dismissed on grounds that plaintiffs weren't able to prove that the logic boards used were "unfit for their ordinary purpose."</p> <!--break--> <p>From
Reuters:</p>
<p>U.S. District Judge William Alsup in San Francisco said the plaintiffs, Uriel Marcus and Benedict Verceles, failed to show that Apple made "affirmative misrepresentations," despite citing online complaints and Apple marketing statements calling the laptops "state of the art" or the "most advanced" on the market.</p> <p>"Plaintiffs have failed to allege that Apple's logic boards were unfit for their ordinary purposes or lacked a minimal level of quality," Alsup wrote. "Both plaintiffs were able to adequately use their computers for approximately 18 months and two years, respectively."</p>
<p>It's important to note that this lawsuit is seperate from one initiated
late last year over a similar issue concerning the integrity of the soldering between the GPU and logic board in 2011 MacBook Pros.</p> <p>Source:
