"Now free* with every Mac you purchase: 2 tickets on the USS Macintosh, Apple's literal Mothership which will take you and a friend to Fruitopia--a new joint-venture between Apple Computer and the Fruitopia Beverage Company. Fruitopia is a Mac-user-only planet in a far-off galaxy where Macs rule and PCs are eerily gone. Completely."
Okay, I need sleep. I'm starting to not make any sense.
i have to say.. i love the hype, but i'm really gonna hate the dissapointment. if only they could live up to the hype, they'd have 90% market share by monday night!

Hmm, well it sure seems like they're taunting and teasing the hardcore rumor people by posting slogans that keep hinting at something. Of course this entire ad campaign could have been decided on months ago and it's just us who are making it seem like it means oh so much.

I really hope it hasn't. Because that means I paid nearly $2,000 more for a laptop that runs OS X than I had to for one with similar specs. I think porting OS X to windows would kill Apple since they make the most money on hardware...don't they?
