Re:Apple Pays Swiss Federal Railways $21 Million For Clock Icon by smackfu on Monday November 12, 2012 @09:00AM (#4772832)
Well, they're paying 21 million dollars to:

1) Continue using the clock. If they lost the lawsuit, they would have to stop.

2) Not admit they are wrong.

3) Avoid a very public trial that competitors could point to and say "Apple copies too!"

All of those are probably worth more to Apple than the actual lawsuit damages.
