An Apple Inc store employee has started a union in a rare move at a company known for its near-fanatical following and cutting-edge mystique.

Cory Moll, a part-time employee at an Apple store in San Francisco, is working to form a union to fight for better wages and benefits and to address what he says are unfair practices in the company's glass-and-steel retail showrooms.

It will be interesting to see how this turns out. Apple, is like any other corporation, out for profits. What would occur if they "disallowed" the unionization of it's workers to exist? Will the union supporters be willing to give up their iPads and iPhones should things not go their way?

That's just my take...
