I cannot provide a contact to Apple, but I would wholeheartedly support
Apple's doing this.  The more hardware (and technical support?) they could
provide, the better -- if they do it "big" enough, they'll get a TON of
free publicity from the news networks.  And, besides, isn't this what the
Mac is all about: "the computer for the rest of us" ?
