My particular rock is mostly managemnet oriented - trade rags like The
Net Economy, Boardwatch, InfoWeek, etc. These rags - whether *I* enjoy
reading them or not - are required reading for management at my level.
Apple doesn't advertise, to any great degree anyway, in these
publications (if at all). However, I have seen their ads in digital
media rags - though your average $PHB ain't gonna read that, now is
he...
My mind is extremely open, despite my title and position. I'd like to
see Apple advertise more, really I would. But either they're not
advertising to the stodgy corporate market segment, or I truly have
donned some Apple blinders.
