Mark Papermaster is a bit teed off apparently. The 26-year former IBM Blade server executive filed a counter suit last last week against IBM which is suing Papermaster to stop him from going to work at Apple.

Last Thursday the court ordered Big Blue to put up a $3 million dollar bond just in case IBM’s legal action doesn’t hold water.

The case of two tech titans is due back before the court tomorrow, Tuesday, for a conference on discovery and trial motions.
