Strange how I've got beetles singles from the 60's on apple label but the high courts think they somehow managed to copy something that arrived 20 years later!

Well that's interestiing. Your top link said this

Apple used a British company named "IP Application Development LLC" to register the trademark. Can you figure out how it chose that name? Take a look at the name of the company — its acronym is "I.P.A.D."

Shocking.... so we Brits helped them pinch the name?

All this reminds me of the south park episode where Steve jobs creates the centipad with users who randomly agreed to the terms and conditions.
