Apple should sue Duke University and Frank Miller, assistant director of communications infrastructure with Duke’s Office of Information Technology should be fired. It was totally irresponsible for him to make the remarks he did when he did.

Duke University & IT zealots
It was fun to watch all the MS water boys & IT Apple haters jump in with their comments. What was totally disgusting is the way that many of these so called respectable tech sites jumped on the bandwagon without any evidence. Of course now that Duke has not given the exact details as to why this happened it will be an Evil Apple conspiracy. Look at the way that this article was written. Almost, sort of implying it still had something to do with Apple. I don't know if the guy should lose his job but I wouldn't let him handle the press...no common sense. He seemed to have the usual IT disdain towards Apple. Where did all the MS water boys go? No posts here?

A lot of FUD being thrown around...you have to wonder why.
Love my iPhone
I'm one of the lucky ones whose corporate IT have completely embraced the
iPhone. A few more refinements with Lotus Notes and device security and my Blackberry is history. They are interested in news on patches for our Cisco access points. This post is from my iPhone.
Name correction
Dopey IT managers spreading fear and uncertainty around Apple...
Sheesh!
The IT manager is Kevin Miller, not Frank Miller.
You're right
We're fixing now; apologies to Mr. Miller.
Duke CIO
Maybe Richard Brodhead and the Board of Trustees can bring the Duke Klan/Gang of 88 and the Campus Cultural Initiative on board to solve the problem? It must be a race/gender/class warfare problem, right?
Maybe if Duke didn't have to settle law suits because of the way they deny their own students civil liberties, they would have funding to solve the problem.
