Rush Limbaugh is a radio talk-show host. His show can be heard
live on stations all over the U.S. plus Guam. Supposedly this
show is the most listened-to talk show in the U.S.

Today Rush commented a bit on Apple Computer, Inc. Supposedly
the Mac Classic is doing quite well, and stores are getting upset
because Apple is not supplying Mac Classics as quickly as they
can sell them.

This caused Rush to comment that Apple Computer is, in effect,
money-grubbing scum (to steal a phrase from David Letterman).
He suggests that Apple has always gone for high profit margins
rather than a broad base and lower margins, which is very
believable to me.

At any rate, I'm not posting this to complain about Apple
or to start another flame war. I am posting this to let everyone
know that they can get in touch with Rush and complain about
Apple Computer (whatever grievances they have) on a national
radio broadcast.

Calls are taken from noon-3pm eastern, while the show is broadcast
live. It may be tape delayed in other areas. The phone number
is 1-800-282-2882.

I don't have an address to write to, but I do have Rush's e-mail
address. He is 70277,2502 on compuserve. For those of us not on
Compuserve, you can reach him at 70277.2502@compuserve.com.
He gets about 100 letters a day on there, but he does read them
all (prints them out) and uses some of them on the air.

Here is your chance to get your greivances aired through
someone who is somewhat informed and part of the national
media.
