Gianfranco Lanci may be gone from Acer, but the PC maker’s former chief is not forgotten — not financially, at least. The company is suing the exec over non-compete violations, after he jumped ship around this time last year.

Today’s been all about the white phones , and Nokia’s new Lumia matches that glossy finish we saw on its near-identical twin, the white N9 . Here, opposing the matte goodness of the rest of Lumia 800 family, the unibody shell has an almost-enamel feel on what we’ve heard is still polycarbonate material.

Apple Italia has been fined a total of 900,000 euros for failing to inform its customers that products purchased were already covered by two years of free assistance under national law. It appears that Apple employees encouraged the extra purchase of its own AppleCare plans. With the European court’s continued investigation of possible e-book price-fixing and ongoing legal jousting with Samsung unlikely to end any time soon, it looks like Apple will be busy in the courts next year too

We haven’t heard much from outspoken former Acer CEO Gianfranco Lanci since he left the company back in March of this year, but it looks like he’s now ready to get back into the PC business in a slightly different role. Lenovo confirmed today that Lanci is joining the company as a consultant to “help develop and accelerate Lenovo’s worldwide consumer business.” Initially, those efforts will be mostly focused on Lenovo’s integration of German PC manufacturer Medion, which it acquired in June for $907 million, but it sounds like this is more than just a short-term gig — he does get to stay in Italy, though

Ferrari’s been one of the most respected car manufacturers in the world since the 1940s, but it hasn’t exactly gotten there by being bleeding-edge. In the early ’60s, when rear-engined cars were sweeping the charts in Formula One, Il Commendatore — Enzo Ferrari — refused to take one racing, famously saying “the horse doesn’t push the cart along with its nose.” It would take many humiliating defeats before his company would finally put that horse where it belongs. Being an early adopter, obviously, was not a priority.
