Hear hear!  I heartily agree.  Flames are one thing (will system 7.0 have
memory protection, does Apple charge too much. etc.), but all this spite and
hate is just sick.

BTW, it is APPLE DEALERS who are suing APPLE to stop educational discounts. 
AGAIN: Apple wants educational discounts (it's in their interests too); others
are trying to stop them from keeping them.
