I feel your pain, but at the hardware level. G*D DAMN APPLE! They are
driving me insane! What an evil company, purposely breaking things so
others can't use the stuff they created (and we legally bought).

eg: The Apple SuperDrive (their USB CD-ROM/DVD drive). What a pretty
looking USB CD/DVD USB drive. You would think Apple would be proud
selling that to anybody. Yeah right! It works perfectly with any Mac
computer. Plug it into any PC, and it doesn't want to swallow any disk.
They hacked the USB-to-IDE hardware interface in the SuperDrive, and
purposely broke the USB-to-IDE interface standard, so only their drivers
work. Luckily some hacker figured out what they did, and if you run
FreeBSD and Linux it is pretty easy to fix. All you need to do when you
want to use the Apple SuperDrive after it is plugged in, is to send it a
7 byte "wake-up" sequence. Then it behaves as normal and will accept
CDs/DVDs without problem - until it is unplugged. Apple f***ers, you
will not see another penny from me, ever again!
