as opposed to the immature whining on rushes site about how apple isn't giving him enough business? you really need to snap out of it. there's nothing wrong with idealism, so long as it's an image of what should be and not a naive belief of how things are. people like rush are the problem, the true cynics, the ones who believe you should take the money and run, the ones that think you should whore yourself out to the highest bidder and be happy for the job. rush should get an honest job, he'd never last a day as a 7-11 clerk or at burger king!
