for anyone interested, Rush Limbaugh had some blistering commentary about
Steve Jobs and some of his business decisions.. For what it's worth, I think
Rush is correct on this.  There has been no bigger supporter of Apple
products than Rush.  In fact, it was his constant endorsements of the iMac
and G-3 some years back that convinced me to make the switch to Apple.  He
is constantly talking up Mac products and has been a Mac user since his
program began on the radio 15 years ago, and has never been paid a dime by
Apple for his endorsement of their products.  Jobs is a huge supporter of
our former President and his political bias won't allow him to advertise on
one of the most successful programs on the air today. Shareholders should be
concerned about this.  You can read the article in case you are interested :

If you've ever listened to the program or tuned in to the web cam, he is
telling the truth, there is a 22" cinema display and apple servers next to
it that would be nothing but free advertising.  One word from Rush about
buying a product, and his listeners buy it. Sales of that bed he refers to
jumped almost 200% after he formally endorsed it and said he used it at his
home.  That's a proven fact with every sponsor he's had on his show.  Not a
single one has lost money on advertising with him.  It has nothing to do
with one's  political philosophy, it's about making money for the
shareholders and getting the most bang for your buck and Jobs seems to be
missing the boat here.  This is not a political endorsement or an
endorsement of the Rush Limbaugh program or his philosophy,  just my honest
opinion about doing something that makes good business sense.
