This holiday season I was given some Christmas money, and I wanted to purchase a DVD burner for my G4 Apple Macintosh computer. When I purchased my computer, I was wise in buying a tower since they are upgradeable, right? WRONG!

I completely support Apple on this. Why should they supply you with parts that you could have got when you purchased the machine?
That's the silliest thing I've ever heard! So computers shouldn't be upgradeable now? Perhaps your general contractor should tell you you can't add that wing on your home, you should've added it when you bought it! New car stereo? No! Why didn't you buy it when you bought the car?
I normally respect OSNews as, well, a NEWS source.
That's your mistake, sitharus. OSNews is run by volunteers, not journalists, and we publish submissions by our readers, many including experiences with OSes (countless), OS companies (plenty of those too), and even hardware vendors (like NAS devices). If you're a reagular reader, you'd know that opinion pieces show up on the site regularly.
