Apple's Steve Jobs and Tim Cook apparently disagreed on suing Samsung.?

Apple's legal beef with Samsung is storied and well established, with an oft-quoted passage in Walter Isaacson's biography of Steve Jobs where the late Apple cofounder promised to go to "thermonuclear war" to stop Android, the operating system used in Samsung's most popular devices, according to the Silicon Valley Business Journal.

Only, it seems that if Tim Cook had had his way, there'd be no war, thermonuclear or otherwise.

According to a Reuters, Tim Cook opposed the idea of going after Samsung in court. The reason: Cook worried that as a major supplier of parts for the iPhone and other Apple devices, Samsung could make trouble for Apple's supply chain if they pursued them too aggressively.

Jobs, for his part, was fed up with Samsung after it released the Galaxy Tab, a device he felt was a copy of the iPad.
