Let's face it - there's probably ten thousand Mac-heads fanatical enough to sacrifice themselves so their St. Steve can live just one more minute.
I write that as an Apple fan, with 4 Macs, an iPhone, and an iPod. I'm a ex-professional Mac developer. And I appreciate all that Jobs has done for the industry. But a lot of members of the Cult of Apple are just that nuts.
Mac-heads’ livers go into the pool. They cannot designate who it goes to. Backroom deals can be made. But any hospital and surgical team that works that way is probably located in another country.
I always felt that the Mac folks were a bit cultish. The Mac was probably a better product than the PC 20 years ago (at a lot higher cost), but now the only difference seems to be fewer virus attacks.
You said — Let’s face it - there’s probably ten thousand Mac-heads fanatical enough to sacrifice themselves so their St. Steve can live just one more minute.

Well, someone else was spreading that rumor around, too — on another thread. But, from the Macintosh users (and iPhone and iPod users) that I’ve talked to, while they love their Macs and iPhones and iPods — they *also* love their livers and other organs and don’t intend to donate any of them to anyone else... LOL...
