  Well I think its part of the greater program.  California is desperate to
prove the viability of their technology sector, and the recent shenanigans
with Apple were perhaps their last ditch effort to prove to the world that
California has some kind of advantage in technology production.  It seems
scary things are in store for California.

  Regarding LA/Cali, they are very much damaging AZ with their recent
attempts to smear the entire state.  I expect more of this kind of garbage
for their leadership there, who refuse to represent the middle class and
offer excuse after excuse.  In general both Apple and Microsoft will
continue to get pricier and more legally cumbersome, making Linux more and
more attractive.
