[Ipg-smz] Why I like Apple

[Todd R. Weiss]

Sorry to hear about this,  my friend.
But... this is the same company that only responds to the 10 or so
journalists on their nice list and leaves everyone else without a response
most of the time
And its possible that you got that great treatment because you are Swapnil
and they know your work.
I am not convinced that if this had happened to Joe or Josephine Schmo that
they'd be going to China with a new laptop today.
Thats just my opinion.
Safe travels my friend.
I was supposed to be going there, too, but no one mentioned early that I
needed a visa.  :)  Oh well.
Next time.
Have a great trip.  :)
Yours,
Todd.
