(View all)I can't wait to hear what people have to complain about this.
Edit: Nope, that monitor is still hideous.
It would appear the word got back to Apple about their user base not being happy about being taken advantage of just for being a loyal Mac user.
So much for our friends out there saying that the complainers should just shut up or leave because complaining won't do any good.
