Mac Expo?

Um, according to Apple and the rest of the free world's journalism and media, the event that MacLife is calling "Mac Expo" is actually called "MacWorld Expo."  Just checking to make sure that I did not miss anything...

Um, yeah, you missed the fact that Macworld (there's no intercapped W, it's just "Macworld") is Mac|Life's major competitor. Why should M|L give its competitor more press than it already gets?

uh, yeah.  Check any of the press that MacLife gave the event.  Even on the front cover of the magazine!  Quite honestly, despite the fact that Macworld is a competitor to MacLife, Apple calls the event "Macworld Expo." So should the media.

I call it super-fun Mac time.

But that's just me.

I couldn't agree more. By the way, Jason Snell of Macworld and I have had a couple of chuckles about this subject. Beyond that ... well ... yawn...
