While I agree in spirit with what Teriann has to say, the bottom line
is that the executives of Apple MUST answer to the people who OWN 
the company - the stockholders.
    The way for the end users such as ourselves to have a loud voice
in the compnay is to buy stock.

While our few shares taken individually are not paid attention to by
Scully, and the other 'profit-minded' individuals, i f those of us who own a fe
shares of stock were to band together through an association of 'vested
owners'  and make our wishes known, we would have a LOUD voice.

Thanks to the the generous support of our government of interconnected
computers lioke ARPA/USENET/ (Portal is my entry) think of the THOUSANDS
of stockholders whoi can share opions and strategy.
"propsals" to Apple won't work - but owners' demands will!
