Charles, since you (luckily!) don’t spend much time in DC, you wouldn’t know that Google has had an ad campaign on WAMU (DC’s NPR station) for how Google products can be used by government agencies. As the ad says, “log on to google.com/federal.” As a Google fan, it’s depressing. Good for Apple for bringing up the rear in high-tech corporatism.
