I'd have to do some research to confirm this; but I suspect the reason 
for the suit (and the reason Apple agreed to settle) is because *Apple* 
made claims that the equipment was supported, and that the software 
would run adequately. You may know better, but many novice computer 
users (the type of consumers Apple has been courting with the iBook and 
iMac lines) would have had no reason not to take Apple at their word on 
this.
