Just to be a bit nasty... ;)

I've had it up to *here* with iThis, iThat,
iEverything and eEverything! (Cyberwhatever is also
wayyy overused.)

So to be nasty, and a bit onery too, I shall refer to
my two PowerBook Duos as dBooks.

If Apple ever makes a new version of the Duo, I'll
liscense the dBook name to them on reasonable terms.
;)

Speaking of product name liscensing, Ford foolishly
sold all rights to "GT-40" to a company named
Safir GT (they make parts for original and repro
GT-40 cars) a few years ago. Now Ford will be building
a modern and updated car styled like the 1960's
original. Safir GT wanted "only" 40 million dollars
for the rights to the GT-40 name. So Ford is just
going to call it "GT".
