Porsche will contest Laguna Seca in historic colors of the Apple Computer livery (opens in new tab)

I had an IT job where I got to replace ink in enterprise printers and the tactility was great. I completely understand the convenience of always plugged in and connected drives, but for some media it would be great to have some clicks or tactility when plugging things in, and having more plug and play storage options. I miss the days of plugging in a “thing” which holds a defined media or set of media. Game disks and cartridge support on PC, even if it isn’t practical, would be great to see

The absolute, very last complaint that I have with Apple's brand right now is their logos. They can abandon minimalism once they're done worshiping authoritarianism, until then they don't deserve it.

every cent you invest in the product is taken from your profit.

Oh that's why the "Hoonipig" had that livery. I must admit I didn't think much about it's origins, but it was one of my favourite cars to come out of the Hoonigan/Ken Block machine.

edit: on second look, it doesn't seem like the same pink but it is a similar aesthetic. Surely a homage but maybe not as direct as I thought.

Yummy pink pig liver. So livery.

Common sense or reading the article would help.

> “We’ve enjoyed a longstanding relationship with Porsche, going back to 1980 when a Porsche race car first carried the Apple logo,” Oliver Schusser, Vice President Apple Music, Sports and Beats, said. “That moment marked the beginning of a shared passion for innovation and creativity that continues to define our collaboration today. As Apple celebrates its 50th anniversary, we’re proud to once again partner with Porsche on a design that pays tribute to that original 1980 livery.”

Got down voted here but I was being serious. That greige colour of early Apple was part of the branding that made room for the colourful logo. These race cars break design rules and look worse for it.

Race fans criticize liveries all the time.

FWIW I agree with you, this title made it sound like Porsche was going to file a lawsuit against Apple. Maybe it's a cultural thing but I've never heard "contest" being used this way in American English, at the very least.

Out of the context of racing perhaps, but the 'in' should have made it clear. Maybe if you don't know what Laugna Seca is one might get confused. But then this press release probably isn't aimed at you.

The title reads perfectly fine to me. Especially with the `in` preposition.
