Rush Limbaugh's plea to Steve Jobs
Saying that Apple CEO Steve Jobs is "politically opposite" to himself, Rush told asked his audience. "Do you think I ought to put out a plea to Steve Jobs? [...] ust to say, 'Mr. Jobs, please, I just ordered six brand-new Mac Pros: four for me and two as gifts; maxed out, Blu-ray drives. I've loaded 'em up. Our whole office here is Mac, and I just want it to work because I love them -- and these two things that aren't working would seem to me, as a novice, to be a simple fix, but they're not.'"
One of Rush's staffers apparently thinks there's a conspiracy afoot, stating "You don't understand it. Jobs has you tagged. He's making sure your computers don't work. If you put out this appeal to Steve Jobs and ask him to help, his reply is going to be, 'Mr. Limbaugh. Do us a favor and endorse Windows.'" (laughter)"
Apple has, reportedly, capitulated to Limbaugh before. The company made changes to its podcast delivery service to enable restricted access to some iTunes podcasts, according to a new report by political radio talk show host Rush Limbaugh. After receiving requests to make his popular audio and video podcasts via iTunes, Limbaugh said that he has been working to Apple to achieve a solution to allow members of the (paid) Rush 24/7 service to access restricted content on iTunes.

Tell us your problems, Limbaugh and we'll see how widespread the issue is.
