Did you do a business plan for that?  What's your estimate of the 
support costs and the user base? Do you have projections of what that 
will do to staffing requirements, and where those staff members will go 
when iDVD for OS 9 goes away?

I don't hear any concern about Apple, or the staff, or their future, or 
any appreciation of the difficulty in producing high-tech products - 
just that anyone who doesn't provide what you want on your terms must 
be malicious.
