Some people are blowing this way out of proportion - Weigland, unfortunately, is one of them.

I agree completely, but the outcome has done my heart good. Dell may well be as blameless in all of this as they claim to be, but either way they are doing all that they can to disassociate themselves from the Brady Bunch. You'd think they'd been linked to the KKK, the way they're recoiling.

The message seems to be out there: don't antagonize the gun owners. It's not the "gun lobby" you'll have to deal with, but your own grass-roots customer base.

Of course, now that Dell has seen the stick and is doing the right thing, let's not skimp on the carrot.

Big tasty carrot bump... [whew] does this mean it will stop?

You get it. I'm reminded of the Jeep advertisement issue of a few months ago. Now this. Perhaps the worm has turned.
