These apples with Apple logos and products are the handiwork of a Japanese Apple fan (more pics on the site) who covered Fuji apples with custom Apple stickers, then waited a month them for to mature.
For the finishing touch, they added a leaf in afterwards in graphics. Wonder if these would be ripe for copyright infringement…

I probably shouldn’t be saying this on a Mac site, but reputation be damned: I’m quite interested to see Windows 7. Let me explain why. (Hang on while I put on my flame-proof jacket. There.)

It seems that suing Apple is no longer just the sport of crazy chicks allegedly denied their dog-given right to resell iPhones at extortionist rates because Apple discounted them. Instead, we have crazy patent campers who think that 25 years after Apple pioneered the use of the GUI in personal computers, they’re entitled to [...]

In the wake of Apple pulling out of Macworld — and the prospect that Steve Jobs may leave the company — many are wondering if Apple will survive without him.
The answer is yes, Apple will definitely survive without Steve Jobs. It may even thrive.
Here’s three reasons [...]

What’s this obsession with copyright infringement?! Ooh, look there’s a logo with a green apple in it! Wonder if Apple will sue them? There’s a guys growing apples in his backyard! Maybe they’ll come over and chop his tree down. Or better yet, break all his fingers for being creative. That’ll teach him.

Interesting and clever, a completely natural way to create the logos on the fruit’s surface. If Apple had one or two clever people over there in Cooperteeeno they’d contact this person and get permission for the idea and use these ‘logo’d’ apples at the next Apple Computer event.
And on a different note, how would one do this for Microsoft? Are there naturally occurring windows out there?
