Kind of like how Apple modeled themselves after Sony. Interesting that this sort of legal battle never happened with car manufacturers as cars from various manufacturers tend to share fashionable design attributes.

Samsung certainly doesn't model itself after Apple. It just copies their product designs down to the packaging and marketing.
