MS copying X ! ?
I was reading an article when I stumbled upon this advertisement...
http://adlog.com.com/adlog/i/r=8071& … 728x90.jpg
Now, I see ads like this all the time, but I looked quickly at it, and said to myself, 'Wow! When did Apple release such an ugly comp-' Then realized, it was a DELL from Hell. What through me off was the desktop picture. Look closely, doesnt that look a little to much like Tiger's new blue background???

This happens all the time. I see TV ads with Powerbooks in them but that company's services require a PC running IE.

Look in the latest ESPN magazine. The last page of content. It has Mac osx but the OS 9 version of IE.

The screen should be all pimpled over with a bunch of icons. The desktop pic...,er wallpaper that looks Xish could be available for PC Users. I hate icon clutter.
