    I see a lot of people that like to talk about themselves and their use of "Macs". It has been my experience that they also tend to identify themselves with "human rights" campaigns and ideologies. Would any tree-hugger care to explain for me their obvious willingness to overlook Foxconn's business practices and most importantly their treatment of employees just to support "Macs"?

    Left and right I go on the planet, inter-webs, and about my daily life on planet earth and mainly find only sheeple of amazing varieties and multitudes!
