I dont think sticking a sticker of an apple sticker on it makes it "Apple labeled" anymore then a tag saying "rolex" would make a fake rolex from the street a real rolex.

That's still a point of legal contention.

In any case, it's perfectly legal for you to buy a cheap watch and put a Rolex sticker on it as long as you don't sell it on as a "genuine" Rolex.

Something can be "Apple labeled" but not a genuine Apple product. "Apple manufactured" would have made more sense.

But of course Apple doesn't manufacture their own machines. They design them and label them, hence the odd wording in the EULA.
