It seems to me that with the runup in Apple stock over the years in which this is alleged to occur, that they're going to have a very difficult time proving any damages were inflicted.

Yeah, why the frack are the Investors suing? Don't they know this could actually cause the shares to GO DOWN? Dumbassssssses. Apple has already voluntarily come up with some independent probes and stuff, and is being open about "Oh frack, some more irregularities". What's the point of going off and suing them on top of that? It's greed. Greed of the lawyers, and greed on the part of the Investors who obviously aren't happy of the, oh, say, TRIPLING of their AAPL share prices. Wankers.

*Yawn* Who cares? For now, bring on the juicy WWDC news!

I doubt the "investors" are bringing this lawsuit against Apple, smells like a class-action suit brought by fearless law firms jealously defending our rights as investors.

As an Investor I have not received any legal forms requesting me to join a class action suit against Apple. This is a firm doing this on their own or for a small group of investors.

Yeah, as one of those investors, I certainly haven't received any notification of this... damned remoras.

It should of read that a law firm started a suit not investors since investors haven't taken part. I think whats even more rediculous about these lawsuits is the fact that they really don't know what went wrong. Apple says irregularities happened and this lawfirm spits out some gabage about brokage stock option filing problems. As if they really know that. It used to be that even greedy lawyers would wait until they knew what they were suing for, now they are so greedy they sue without having merit and expect that judges are stupid enough to let it go through since Apple is ripe for the picking.
