You have got to be kidding me?
Why is HP's conduct of concern to me? Are you really asking that? The implication you are making is that nobody should care about this or anything like it unless they are directly involved, and that is just about the most pathetic form of apathy I have seen in quite some time.

The long and short of it is that if the average guy on the street takes no stand on issues such as this then the average guy on the street is going to be on his own and hung out to dry when an issue such as this does affect him one day. The short sightedness of your comment YukonRay is staggering. I can only hope that if one day you get knocked on the head unfairly by some form of corporate underhandedness or big business tom foolery that the rest of the world simply doesn't say why should we care what happens to old YukonRay, after all as unfair and illegal as the thing may be it isn't affecting us...
