Breaking news: Apple sues Samsung for infringing on their patent to use trucks with rounded wheels to deliver money. More to follow


And Samsung sends another truck without wheels on scates ;-)


This is under category 'satire' so probably not true.

Apple is the new definition of evil. They themselves stole from Xerox, once upon a time. And suffered at the hand of Microsoft (because of bad practices). Now when they get a second chance, they themselves chose to be evil. "Thermonuclear war" on you Apple!


Nonsense, 20 billion coins will weight 100,000 tons (the nickel is exactly 5 grams), it will take 3000 heavy trucks to deliver, not 30.


Oh no! Apple didn't got paid in full you mean? :D


I think this is going to turn out to be a hoax


But we're all secretly hoping it isn't, right?


Haha I know right.


Apple should send back those trucks to Samsung and say - 'Sorry amount not matching!'


Most probably, this is a hoax. Let's hope it's not. :P


cf. Kyle Bass had to have his banker get clearance from the Federal Reserve to buy one million dollars in nickels.
