  As a former Eazel employee, I can say that indeed Eazel did not get acquired by Apple. As the Wikipedia page states, a sizable pool of people went to work on Safari 1.0 (and some are still working on Safari). Others went to Apple to work on the Finder or Core Graphics. Another big chunk of people went to Danger to work on the T-Mobile Sidekick. But the company shut down. No one was left besides the CFO.

  FTA: > Staff consisted of former employees of many technology companies such as Apple, Netscape, Be Inc., Linuxcare, Microsoft, Red Hat, and Sun Microsystems. Sounds like some of the people that founded, or at least worked at, the company did come from Apple. FTA: > The company attempted to sell its core development group but ceased operations on May 15, 2001. > Hertzfeld arranged a meeting with Steve Jobs and most of Apple's high level management. In June 2001, most of Eazel's final roster of senior engineers joined Apple's Safari team Sounds to me like your suggested title saying that they were acquired by Apple would not be an accurate way to put it.
