It would send a better message. I would think it would be worth the time to configure their devices to use freeware and free and community supported operating systems rather than closed proprietary ones. Just wondering?

You do realize these "Why don't OWS protestors do everything in their power to appear poor.." posts don't do anything, right?

Steve Jobs was a classic liberal, not a totalitarian.

I use Ubuntu all the time. I'm certainly not poor, from an asset standpoint at least.

When I buy paper products, I look for the Georgia Pacific (Koch) label.
