I heard a similar thing on CNBC I think.  This would be one of
the best things for Apple, IMHO.  The best products
around come from Apple Inc ie their hardware and software.  But
their advertising sucks rocks.  Bad.  The PowerMac is the 
(current) pinnacle of computing power, and allI see advertisted
on TV are a few George Clinton ads on MTV.  You have got to be kidding
me.  When Intel is flipping Pentiums on the TV on every channel,
you have got to do better than MTV mini-videos.  Motorola would
bring some common sense to marketing in all probability since
they see Apple royally screwing up their bread-and-butter
CPU.

If Apple advertised the GS as a baby mac waaaaay back when, and
Macs were marketed as business machines, PC's would be a memory
now.
