I'd like to mention that I am also boycotting both Apple and Lotus, for the
same reasons that the LPF urges them to be boycotted.  I also rant and rave
about the evilness of both Apple and Lotus in a lot of fora, including at work
and among several groups of people I communicate with.

I find the practices of a lot of companies to be shady or undesirable; I
think that the actions of Lotus and Apple are evil, and I will never
purchase anything from either of them until they take steps to correct that.
