This morning more than 30 trucks filled with 5-cent coins arrived at Apple’s headquarters in California. Initially, the security company that protects the facility said the trucks were in the wrong place, but minutes later, Tim Cook (Apple CEO) received a call from Samsung CEO explaining that they will pay $1 billion dollars for the fine recently ruled against the South Korean company in this way.
The funny part is that the signed document does not specify a single payment method, so Samsung is entitled to send the creators of the iPhone their billion dollars in the way they deem best.
This dirty but genius geek troll play is a new headache to Apple executives as they will need to put in long hours counting all that money, to check if it is all there and to try to deposit it crossing fingers to hope a bank will accept all the coins.
Lee Kun-hee, Chairman of Samsung Electronics, told the media that his company is not going to be intimidated by a group of “geeks with style” and that if they want to play dirty, they also know how to do it.
You can use your coins to buy refreshments at the little machine for life or melt the coins to make computers, that’s not my problem, I already paid them and fulfilled the law.
A total of 20 billion coins, delivery hope to finish this week.
Let’s see how Apple will respond to this.

대충 요약하자면
이번 삼성vs애플 소송건으로 삼성이 애플에게 10억달러를 배상하게 되었는데요
삼성이 애플 본사로 10억달러를 5전짜리 동전으로 트럭 30대만큼 보냈다고 하네요
판결문에는 삼성이 어떻게 돈을 배상해야되는지 안나와있어서 삼성이 이렇게 한거처럼 보이네요
이건희가 한말에 이 동전들로 평생 자판기에서 음료나 뽑아먹거나
이동전들을 녹여서 컴퓨터를 만들던가 하랍니다
자기는 법을 따르고 돈은 다 배상했다고
근데 동전양이 무려 200백억개 ㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋㅋ
