There are a lot more Volvo owners then Volvo workers and nearly
every Volvo owner I know owns at least one Apple computer.  That is 
probably the reason Apple had no comment on this story.

If the American Indians made a car or computer I would consider
buying it, buy why buy from European deserters who came to
America to destroy the native Americans when you can buy from
loyal Europeans who stayed and persevered?  This country needs
an Apple in every teepee.;)
