Something that bothers me is all the complaining we are doing. Do you
think
Microsoft gives their stuff away? No! They charge even for the
betas. And
because Apple (Our Choice of Weapon) decides to catch up with other
manufacturers and charge us a measly amount for something they dont
have to
make available for us anyways, we cry foul?
I think we all need to take our bran muffins and sing our little songs
and
get back on the wagon. You could be in the same boat as our group. We
havent even received our access to the sales web. Do we complain?
No. We
continue to support our members the best we can. And we will continue
to do
so as long as there is an Apple computer and as long as our members
want us
to.

Are we going to burn our bra's and chant about how the man is keeping
us down too while we're at this? Apple is GIVING SOMETHING, for you
to
expect it to be free just because you organize yourself is a might
disturbing. We were lucky that it was free before, you contradict
your
own statement in that you compare a computer to a refrigerator, you're
expecting something on this disk, something that you didn't buy with
your "fridge" where I never see GE pop in "oh heres an upgrade to your
freezer there, have a nice day".
Just deal with the fact that if you want something, you have to pay
for
it, it's a couple bucks a month, which is no huge thing compared to
what you get on those disks.

Apple could charge us a fee just to have a MUG Group with them,
Sorry Egan, My group is not with 'THEM', my group is women supporting
women that happen to use a certain flavor of computer. I don't do it
for Apple, I do it for users..
they could very easily tack on little fees and tax us bit by bit to
make up for the things we enjoy.
Think so? would you continue to pay little fees and tax for your
recently purchased refrigerator? A computer is an appliance after
all. Your phone bill is charged for using its service, not the phone
itself.
Let's not bite the hand that feeds us!
It doesn't feed me, I feed it.
It is a small fee for what we're getting in return, easily.
Which is? exactly?
