Как им после этого удалось начать выпускать iPod, я не очень понимаю

Apple Corps жива-живехонька, кстати. «Its chief division is Apple Records, which was launched in the same year. Other divisions included Apple Electronics, Apple Films, Apple Publishing and Apple Retail». Вот.

Что касается iPod, то суд они проиграли:

«On 8 May 2006 the court ruled in favour of Apple Computer, with Justice Edward Mann holding that „no breach of the trademark agreement [had] been demonstrated“.

The Judge focused on section 4.3 of that agreement:

4.3 The parties acknowledge that certain goods and services within the Apple Computer Field of Use are capable of delivering content within the Apple Corps Field of Use. In such case, even though Apple Corps shall have the exclusive right to use or authorize others to use the Apple Corps Marks on or in connection with content within subsection 1.3(i) or (ii) [the Apple Corps catalogue and any future music], Apple Computers [sic] shall have the exclusive right to use or authorize others to use the Apple Computer Marks on or in connection with goods or services within subsection 1.2 [Apple Computer Field of Use] (such as software, hardware or broadcasting services) used to reproduce, run, play or otherwise deliver such content provided it shall not use or authorize others to use the Apple Computer Marks on or in connection with physical media delivering pre-recorded content within subsection 1.3(i) or (ii) (such as a compact disc of the Rolling Stones music).»

Но, тем не менее, «on 5 February 2007, Apple Inc. and Apple Corps announced a settlement of their trademark dispute under which Apple Inc. took ownership of all of the trademarks related to „Apple“ (including all designs of the famed „Granny Smith“ Apple Corps Ltd. logos), and will license certain of those trademarks back to Apple Corps for their continued use. The settlement ends the ongoing trademark lawsuit between the companies, with each party bearing its own legal costs, and Apple Inc. will continue using its name and logos on iTunes. The settlement includes terms that are confidential.»

Так что на месте Groupon'а я бы закинул денег GNOME, выпустил бы планшет с их ОС, а потом выкупил бы торговую марку, милостиво разрешив её использовать для графической среды.
