Well, I'm sure that Apple's "liberal image" has had Mr. Limbaugh looking for any excuse to trash them. I'm not too happy about Apple and their actions right now, but I think it funny more than anything else that they're supply is not meeting the demand. And after spending all those bucks advertising. Gee.... Be advised people, Rush Limbaugh is a strange bedfellow at best. He takes great joy in lumping alternative energy advocates in the same category as Earth First!, and he seems to have a personal vendetta against the president of the National Organization for Women. -- Avery Ray Colter {apple|claris}!netcom!avery {decwrl|mips|sgi}!btr!elfcat (415) 839-4567 "I feel love has got to come on and I want it: Something big and lovely!" - The B-52s, "Channel Z"
