    You know, what he was saying is the PCs are cheaper than macs, period, not that the Macs are more expensive.

    Before you get pissy, please read what the parent has written, thanks.

    Bollocks! In most cases, the company you work for could easily choose to pay you an honest working wage, but they decided, instead to give the board a bonus (or somesuch).

    The answer, brother, is to form a union - dont get screwed while the boss makes promises. Policies and Promisies are worthless, if he could, your employer would put you in the poor house if it meant a new 'vette for his mistress. Ask the teaming multitudes at Enron, who's bosses admonished them to "buy more stock" while they themselves were dumping it knowing the house was going up in flames, ask them what their hard work and "productivity gains" got them...

    How much you know, how much you do and how "productive" you are rarely translates into higher pay, how hard you suck the boss off is what gets you ahead.
