"Gramme: I'd like to see this thread resolved and die just as much as the next guy, but I must ask you this: How did you go about this 'issue' when you decided to throw an Apple Cinema Display on your website?"
When I designed the current site in 2009, I bought an image of a monitor from LiveSurface. That image is still for sale at their site, so I think it's safe to say there's nothing illegal about it. I decided against using that image again, because (1) it's an outdated monitor, and (2) it takes up too much space and detracts from the actual website design.
For web work on my new site, I've decided to do something similar to Lundgren+Lundqvist and just use a simplified browser bar. For the iPad app I designed this year, I'm using renderings from Teehan Lax. I know Apple owns the industrial design, but they don't own those images. And, as others here have pointed out, I really doubt that Apple cares one whit about people comping apps onto iPads for their portfolios. It might be different if I was using iPad images to sell something, or modifying the industrial design in some way, but I'm not.
