If he didn't buy the parts from Apple, even if they are identical, they were not legit.
That's not at all what I mean. By legitimate I meant that he did not manufacture the parts himself. They were designed by Apple FOR Apple products.

The parts source had no legal rights to selling 'Apple' parts to third parties even if they manufactured them and he was not authorized to buy and resell 'Apple' parts either.
I'm surprised nobody else here is bothered by the fact that Apple issued press releases announcing the suit (and publicly accusing Lam) before Lam was actually served by the suit.
That's something I'd expect from the RIAA. I'm very saddened to hear that Apple legal is stooping to such tactics. It shouldn't be a big deal to wait for the person serving the papers to report back before issuing press releases.
