He's entitled to his opinion, even if it will cost him my business. www.stuff.co.nz/4774603a1861.html Mr Harvey, who is worth A$1.8 billion in money terms, was asked about the good works he and his business do in the community. He replied that giving money to people who "are not putting anything back into the community" is like "helping a whole heap of no-hopers to survive for no good reason".

I don't either Maire although last year I went in to inquire about a new iMac but I found a better deal at Magnum Mac like $600 dollars cheaper
