Hardly news and not deserving of a pep rally.

It's real obvious that you don't get it.

Hardly news and not deserving of a pep rally.

It's real obvious that you don't get it.

I'm not sure which part I don't get.

That Apple is still a minor player after 20 years?

That they still have a cult like following?

That it's still the preferred platform of the loony left and that Apple and Jobs rewards their slavish devotion with funding for their causes? (and don't forget that Apple and Adobe were the ones who put up the venture capital to start Salon so that the Clinton's would get some friendly internet press)

I'm also 'don't get' why these Apple press parties keep getting posted here. We don't post the MS, HP, Sony, GM, etc, annual meetings, why Apple?

Most posters here agree that boycotting CNN, Disney, etc are good ways to defund and hurt the left, why should Apple be treated differently? I've been down the road with Apple and don't miss their boxes at all. In the real world of business an Apple laptop just gets snickers. Of course the 17" model might rate some guffaws.
