I don't mean to imply that Apple wouldn't do it. Just saying that if we're assigning blame, that's where it should go.

As for putting food on the table, in general I'd agree, but do ex-Apple employees in SV really have trouble finding new jobs?

They do if they want to work for Google, Adobe, Intel...

1. That's not being done anymore.

2. Even if it was, it didn't apply to people who have been fired.

3. Even if it did, there are lots of other places for programmers to work.
