prometheon123's Journal: Hiring Lawyers vs. Engineers

I came across a story in the Wall Street Journal about Apple's current stock-option probe. In the article, one of the former board members involved was said to have led Apple's legal department where "Ms. Heinen joined Apple as a senior vice president and general counsel in 1997 and helped oversee a law department at Apple of about 100 people, including roughly 40 attorneys." In anyone else incredulous to this fact of Apple employing 40 laywers? A company I service still can't get their Macs successfully integrated with Active Directory, and Apple just now sent me an experimental patch to address a problem on a product released 18 months ago. Guess I know where Apple's priorities reside (hiring lawyers instead of engineers). http://online.wsj.com/article/SB116769300537264292.html?mod=home_whats_news_
