Apple doesn't enjoy helping people- they like gouging them for overpriced hardware and software and them transforming them into unpaid evangelists for their company.

I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

    Their tech support and employees at the Mac Authority stores aren't all that helpful either...Went in to ask if they had an older version of Itunes for my older Win2K PC, they didn't know a thing about it.
    If you dont know DOS, you dont know Windows...

    Thats why Bill Gates created the Windows NT Family.

                Had an older computer before my new one(my original Win2K pc) and had a Ipod Nano 3G, the new version of Itunes wouldn't work on my Win2K pc.

                Went into the Mac store and asked if they had an older version of it that would work on my pc, they didn't know a thing i said.
