A group of computer owners has filed a class action lawsuit against Apple and other personal computer makers, claiming that their advertising deceptively overstates the true capacity of their hard drives. The lawsuit asks for an injunction against the purportedly unfair marketing practices, an order requiring the defendants to disclose their practices to the public, restitution, disgorgement of ill-gotten profits and attorneys’ fees, according to Reuters. Others named in the suit, which was filed earlier this week in Los Angeles Superior Court, are Dell, Gateway, Hewlett-Packard, IBM, Sharp, Sony and Toshiba.
