I like Macs a lot--they're well-engineered, esp WRT ease of use. But,
frankly, when it comes to anti-competitive behavior, ain't nobody
(even Microsoft) got nothing on Apple. Yet millions of otherwise-
intelligent people believe passionately that buying Apple == striking
a blow against {corporate America, "the man"}. It's truly bizarre.
