Apple Owns the ApplePico.com Domain

Apple has just been identified as the owner of the ApplePico.com domain, reports MacRumors.

We noticed today that Apple's name has appeared in the public WHOIS listings for applepico.com, a domain that has been controlled by MarkMonitor for a number of years but which neither hosts its own content nor redirects to any other site at the present time.
