I agree with Mr. Lindberg.  We sleep in advertised beds with advertised 
sheets, eat advertised food, go to work in advertised cars, use an 
advertised phone service, and some people go out of business thinking 
they don't need to advertise.  The ][ market has not grown as 
comparatively as the otherr ones because there was/is no advertising.

  Apple got it right the first time.  Down with the LC, pump up the GS!
