All Around the World...
My previous post brought a few suspected Mac heads out into the light. I must admit that even though I use both, I don't really have a preference. If someone wanted to buy me a PC, I'd let them.
I'd probably get enough selling it on Ebay to get a decent Mac.
However, even if you are a PC guy, you have to admire the cleverness of the Mac ads--how they capture the essence of the laid-back, hip sensibility of the Mac user, versus the uptight, stodginess of the PC, while simultaneously pointing out the hazards of running the worlds most popular OS:
Such an American distinction, isn't it? It's too bad this wouldn't play well in the rest of the world.
Errrm...
Well. I guess it's just a western cultural phenomenon. Something like this wouldn't play well over in the homogenous Oriental markets...
Aww hell.
Screw it. I'm going to bed. I feel a cold coming on...

take some airborne, pirate! or have your computer take some...
umm..no. I said 'ornamental.'
Yeah! That's the ticket!
