I have and I can tell you that I understood that they felt they had no responsibility towards people who owned their hardware. How did i get this? Well, they told me that they do not deal with the public and that if I wanted linux specs (the reason for my email) or drivers I would have to ask apple. I don't think they answered me back when I brought attention to how inconsistent it was to think that apple was going to release gnu-linux airport extreme specs and or drivers, considering that gnu-linux ppc competes on their hardware. I have copies of my correspondence with them. And no, I do not think it is unreasonable to post contacts online. It's time they fess up to their social responsibilities of supporting their hardware by not locking their customers into specific architectures. I have personally thought of starting a boycott but school and a lack on info on how to organise this have kept me at bay. Perhaps I should start with my local gnu-linux group. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
