Apple shuts down rumours website (BBC)
Apple has settled a legal row with tip site Think Secret that will see the website shut down.

The legal battle between Apple and the site blew up in January 2005 when Think Secret revealed details of the Mac Mini before its official unveiling.

Apple brought the lawsuit to make the fan site reveal who had leaked details about the cut-down computer.

By agreeing to shut down, the Think Secret site gets to preserve the anonymity of its sources.

APpleInsider and MacRumours now. However I did notice ThinkSecret is still posting new content despite what the article says....
