Abstract
Last November, Apple happily announced that it had hired Mark Papermaster, a 26-year IBM veteran, to head up its iPod and iPhone hardware engineering teams. IBM immediately sued Papermaster, claiming that his employment contract with Big Blue included a noncompete agreement prohibiting just such a move.

The two companies agreed to a settlement in late January; Papermaster will finally sit down at an Apple desk later this month.
