Apple Sues Vendor over Infringing Power Adapters

Apple is suing Media Solutions Holdings in the California Central District Court for infringing Apple's patent in the design of its power adapters. The power adapters in question are packaged with Apple's MacBook and MacBook Pro notebooks, and are sold separately in Apple online and retail stores. Media Solutions Holdings sells a variety of its own electronic accessories for brand name products through several websites, and until recently, sold a cheaper Apple-compatible adapter under the name “Apple MacBook Pro Adapter (100% OEM Compatible)”.
