Hi Ron, This has been a good thread and there wasn't all that much hate expressed toward Mr. Limbaugh. Many people see him as an opportunist looking for some readership and a large ad client. Mr. Limbaugh, like some PC journalist, has found that a stab at Apple gets good readership. With Bill Clinton gone and Mr. Limbaugh's party of choice in control he finds it hard to find things to complain about without turning on his own. But going after Steve Jobs business acumen is a real stretch.
Ads with Mr. Limbaugh's company may have gotten a few people to go the the mac but it would take research to know for sure. I'm not sure that with Mr. Limbaugh's limited consumer reach the research is cost affective. It may be; I don't know. These are reasons companies like Apple, Dell, MS, and Gateway advertise in larger venues. As far as Apple placing ads with Mr. Limbaugh's company; I'm not sure if Apple ever advertises with small venues.
