Apple Growing New Rep: As UNCOOL

Suing bloggers is bad enough - it doesn't need to be any worse. But I just read an account from February 28 in Wired News, about how Apple lawyers apparently put the kibosh on artist Francis Hwang's eBay sale of his self-customized iPod. Yep. He paid for it, he modded it (he just modded the box, actually), and he tried to sell it on eBay. You can read all about it here. His auction was shut down at eBay, so now he's hosting it on his own site.

Can anybody say LINUX?
