Apple really needs to have its entire company cohesion back on track instead of relying of Steve Jobs all the time.

Note : Under the law, regardless of which part of the world, the poor funeral goods seller could still be charged for trademark infringement. Even worse if he is in France - it would have been a criminal act. It doesn't really matter to me if my neighbouring countries practice racism or not, but the thing is that when they did, and the shit spilled over across the Causeway.

As a Chinese I find that story absurd. Chinese burial customs dictates that, almost similarly to Egyptian burial rituals, you bury/cremate the dead with the items you'd wish them to have in the afterlife, albeit you burn representations. When my maternal grandfather died we burned a gigantic paper house, a small plastic corvette (he had one when he was younger), and the usual paper money for him to spend. I mean, better than burning an actual Corvette right?
As for the cheap Filipino romance novels... well yes that's actually true. Peek into any mall or cornershop and you're bound to see a saleslady reading one of those. It's cheap literacy education for less than a dollar a day.
