Just a mild observation here.  I had heard that Apple would be running a
commercial during the Super Bowl, with a great possibility that the
MacIntosh would be announced.  Well, I wasn't really interested in
sitting through the game so I video taped it.  Alas, during the third
quarter was the commercial!  But, nothing other that the anouncement
that "on January 24 Apple will introduce the Apple MacIntosh".  At
least, now, that's official.  I guess the name of it will be the
"MacIntosh", and I thought maybe the name might have been Apple 32.  I'm
glad it's not, since that could be read to say "Apple three II"  which I
like even less than Apple (pu) twoey.

I tried to stop frame the girl, in the commercial, to see just what
exactly was on the front of her T-shirt; and while I'm not positive, it
may have been the rough outline of the "Mac" with a keyboard beneath and
the Apple logo to the bottom left.  I wonder if they're going to be
giving those away sometime in the future?
