Boycott everyone

Oh yeah.  Sure, let's boycott Gibson, and Fender too, while we're at it: I
have a guitar that has had some loose machine heads.

Oh, and let's boycott Roland.  I think they price-gouge.

And does anyone else think Guitar Center could do with some more
knowledgable in-store personel.  Why not boycott them too?

And I remember once having a memorable conversation with a Director of
Marketing at a Mountain View, CA company specializing in music software.
This gentleman was quite rude and confrontational to me before I even had a
chance to present the context of my call.  Quite uninspiring.  Then again,
this same company seems to have been so unsuccessful at making a mark while
its competition streaks away with market share, that I hear the company is
going to (or maybe has already) layed-off some of its employees.  While I
feel sorry for those employees, and I have no information one way or 
another
about the issues they faced,I wonder if there is any link between their
unfortunate fate and this company's marketing?
