One was showing the other two all the things he did on his computer. "You drew this monster eating the army guy on *your* computer?" asked one. "This is the best explosion I ever saw," said the other, pointing to a very graphic mushroom cloud. Before fading to black, one kid says, "We must be stupid." The other looks directly into the camera and says, "No, we're not stupid. Our Dad's just bought us a crummy computer." Fade to black, with stylized apple logo, and messy bite from said logo. "MacIntosh Jr. The power to crush the other kids." --- +---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+---+ | D.
