True. And I have a better idea. Why don't we take all this crap off this
list and direct it at the people who have the power to change this
situation...APPLE! If all the ranting and bitching that has gone on this
list for the last few days were directed at Apple then maybe they would hear
it. Maybe they would do something about it. Remember the eMac just a short
while ago? That wasn't going to be released to the public AT ALL. Then
SOOOOOO many people complained that Apple changed their tune. I am not
meaning this to sound like a "po'd nanny rant" but we really are just
spinning our wheels here. Quibbling amongst ourselves will get us nowhere.
E-mail Apple or start an online petition. Get organized!
