It pains me as well (I'll be getting a nice, shiny 8-core system in two months) but rationalize it with my realization that pretty much every company is evil -- I give my hard-earned paycheck to the least evil company that provides what I'm looking for.
You are allowed to contribute to society, but only if you contribute something that can be used by someone however they want it. Otherwise, don't even bother contributing---making products that bring music to the world, or create jobs.
In order to create value in this society some aggressive behavior is typically deemed necessary. But this is win-lose behavior. Is it possible to think of a new, win-win paradigm?
==> Conclusion,
evil = win-lose
good = win-win
How's that for a definition of evil? All of the parent posts make a lot more sense now, to me.
