Chas,
I just had to write in response to this one, since I did the previous
two in disagreement (mostly) with you. I agree totally with your
sentiment in this post. Just wanted to let you know.

While I personally loathe the man, I've no doubt that he has in fact gotten
people to at least consider the Mac who otherwise wouldn't have. He commands
them as a voodoo priest commands zombies.
However, even if Rush were a raving lunatic left-wing anarchist weirdo
(people whom I also loathe), I wouldn't suggest Apple advertise on his show.
Apple should not advertise on ANY blatantly political show. I was unhappy
with Apple supplying iMacs to the last Democratic Nat'l Convention (unless
they offered to do the same for the Republicans).
Apple does not want to associate itself with ANY political ideology. Apple's
mission is well above such petty nonsense as partisan politics.
