[Kiopa_Matt]

LOL, is this actually true, or is it bullshit? 30 trucks full of 5 cent coins delivered to Apple, totaling $1 billion.

This story came from a Mexican prank diary.
The note was redacted in such a way that the story made it to national TV. This proves 2 things: a) TV is more shit every day and b) People don't like to use sources to corroborate whether what they're reading is true or not.

$1 billion would be almost every single nickel in circulation and take over 2,700 18-wheelers to move at a maximum legal weight of 80,000 pounds each.

Fake but I will try it next time someone pisses me off and I give them a refund after resigning them as a client LOL

This comes off as too small-time and petulant for Samsung. Isn't the case in appeals? Big companies like them prefer to duke it out in the courtroom.

Fucking this. Before even clicking on the link my mind went though just how many nickels that would be totally impossible even if they wanted to for PR.
