This is WAS NOT registered by apple. Seriously people do your homework. Use nslookup and query those domain name servers and you will see that it's not registered to that.

Just another hoax to take advantage of the suckers.

I am lost. Is it real or is it a hoax?
Yes, I know I could buy a PC, but why?

I would guess that it is domain name speculation. Someone paid $75 (or whatever) in the hopes of selling it to Apple if they do buy Universal.

Little do they know that it will be re-branded iUniversal.
