The class action suit was filed last May by pro photographers Fred Greaves and Dave Gatley after the two bought Apple laptops based on the companyis claims that the displays can show millions of colors. The suit alleged “The displays are only capable of displaying the illusion of millions of colors through the use of a software technique referred to as iditheringi.”
The attorney for Mr. Greaves and Mr. Gatley, Peter Polischuk, said that Apple “made a misrepresentation. They have a drop-down menu [in Mac OS X] that lets you choose to display millions of colors.”
He added that his clients chose not to pursue the class action suit any further because they couldnit find enough people that bought a MacBook or MacBook Pro strictly on Appleis claims that the displays show millions of colors.
