1) Hi Steve :cool: I still haven´t bought any hardware since your company screwed Fran with the PBG4 thing. You (not personally of course) still own him one.
2) Steve reading the forums: "WTF. THEY ARE RIGHT?!?! I want whoever wrote those taglines and I want him NOW". Imagine getting fired for not knowning your Star Trek?
3) Ouch. I LOVE when Apple is doing something boldly for egoistic reasons (the Cube and the Newton) but it tens to be bad buisnesswise.
"An Enterprise landing party beams down to an edenic planet, where Kirk discovers that the people living there are still primitive, all progress held in check by an enormous ancient computer known as Vaal, which also demands sacrifices of food by the natives. Vaal detects the Enterprise in orbit and begins to drain it of its power, and Kirk realizes that he will have to destroy Vaal to save the Enterprise, but the surface dwellers' lifestyles will be changed forever if Vaal is removed."

Just for kicks the show starts as usual with the crowd jumping to their feet to cheer Steve (theuy even do that here in tokyo)..... but as he moves accross the stage there is a gasp from the crowd when WILLIAM SHATNER says 'good morning - we have a lot to show you here this morning!'.
Then as some of you suggest Shatner says to the Powermac on the table - Computer, Start Up.
Steve comes onto stage just after this and and when greeted by Shatner as Spock, he says 'its a computer Jim, but not as we know it!'
maybe they just messed up with the quote. obviously they were making a play on the star trek phrase from the start. the way it originally was was wrong so they fixed it. I wouldn't look into it too much other than that. they are just being accurate

That's the first time they've "modified" a tagline!
Star Trek = codename for Mac OS port to x86 project

It has to be something wireless, or voice activated, or something!
Or less likely: Data
