Re: Whats an Apple ][
There appears to be a lot of debate as to whether the Mac is an Apple or
otherwise. As the ignoramus who started this thread (albeit not about the
somewhat trivial issue now in session), I would like to offer a theory.
Perhaps this proposed nomenclature solves the problem:
o The Apple Mac is a model called a Mac made by Apple
(like the Sinclair Spectrum was a model called a Spectrum made by
Sinclair)
o Similarly the Apple ][ is a model called a ][ made by Apple.
Macs and ]['s are Apples, Spectrums are Sinclair, and I have a sneaking
suspicion nobody is going to believe me. :)
Just my $0.000002 worth,
Al
