[...] And now Apple is getting smaller. I'm sure the employees who get dumped will be understanding and realize that Apple is still a great company...and the dorks at the top will get a pay increase. On a related tack, I find it amusing that since Intel has recently seen some similar financial problems, Apple-philes in particular are predicting Intel's demise. So, Apple has financial problems and has to downsize and drop out of certain markets and it is perfectly OK, no prob (those layed off will disagree) but the same for Intel? NO WAY! Their DYING! See? They're laying people off, the bastards. Geesh. poneil@genetics.utah.edu
