Rush’s four (count em) Mac Pros went kaflooey with Leopard . And so he is weighing whether to appeal to Steve Jobs personally to do something about it, now that the latest Leopard update has proved to be a disappointment.
In the end, Rush knows that he’d probably only make things worse, given that Jobs is a lefty who hearts Al Gore . (And Gore hearts Apple, on whose board he sits; see if you can pick out how many times the Apple logo appears in An Inconvenient Truth .)
So Rush may be stuck with his bent laptops.
As someone who found Leopard to be a downgrade from Tiger (try running your DVDs on an iMac G5 before and after), I sympathize. But it could be worse: Just remember the Apple III . . . and The Newton . . . and The Cube . . .
