re: #361 Killgore Trout

Then why does the article mention that they’re making Apple products?

Quote: “WantChina Times and Gameplanet reporting some 300 Foxconn employees working on Microsoft’s Xbox 360 manufacturing line threatened suicide.”

The employees working on Microsoft products are the focus of that article.

Apple is taking advantage of China’s primitive working conditions, yes. But they’re doing so because Americans want these products at these prices. At least they’re trying to be as responsible as possible under these conditions — there are many US companies with worse records than Apple’s.
