Fellow Mackers,
Last month I was in the Apple store, employee asked if he/she could help me, so I inquired about an iPod cover for my original 5 gig iPod. Employee kind of looked down his/her nose at me and scoffed that anyone would have a 5 gig iPod. I was told no products, no support for the 5 gig iPod.

Well getting a cover for it is not the issue, I have one anyway.

The point I would like to submit is that every (or almost every) Mac, and every iPod is a source of pride. I'm extremely proud of my original single-drive 128k Mac (now a fat Mac) which I used to kick IBMs ass with back in the 80s. We stand way above the Pee Cee community which has a history of a lot of crap, beginning with the PC Junior.

Certainly Apple (Apple Store) should show pride in all Apple products, old and new. Even the Mac Portable is a source of pride - it was carried aboard a space shuttle mission. Granted we have some anomolies, like the performas and the cube, but, unlike the PC community, nothing to be ashamed of.

Apple Store Employees - be proud of every Apple product, all the way back to the original Apple I.

Thanks for allowing me to post this.
