Apple has issued a back-handed apology on its website for accusing Samsung of 
stealing their design for the Galaxy Tab 10.1, 8.9 and 7.7. Apple issued the apology in newspapers and on its website after losing an appeal in the UK High Court last week. But within the apology, references are made to Samsung's inferior design, which is "not as cool".
"The informed user’s overall impression of each of the Samsung Galaxy Tablets is the following. From the front they belong to the family which includes the Apple design; but the Samsung products are very thin, almost insubstantial members of that family with unusual details on the back.
"They do not have the same understated and extreme simplicity which is possessed by the Apple design. They are not as cool."
The squabbling tech giants have been in and out of court around the world. Last month Samsung took a clever shot at Apple with an ad making fun of its device-obsessed fans before the release of the iPhone 5.
