All: This is an indication of how things have changed for recognition of AAPL.. Home Shopping Network has a Today's Special Value today, and it is described in their permanent graphical ad for it as a USB "iMac and Computer Color Flatbed Scanner." I've watched Home Shopping for years. They have never mentioned anything Macintosh. In their discussion of this scanner the fact it works with other computers is mentioned as an afterthought! Again, the graphical display says "iMac and Computer Color Flatbed Scanner." This is an extraordinary indication to me that Apple is now being acknowledged as a significant player in the marketplace.
The scanner, by the way, for anyone who is interested, is item number 221-295, it's a 36-bit flatbed, comes with software, is made by Adara, and costs only $88.50 today. Just call 1-800-284-3100 to order it. Price goes up tomorrow. MY scanner cost me about $3000! I almost feel compelled to get this scanner in case I ever get the new G3. LOL! If I hadn't been bankrupted by AAPL and other stocks this month, I might.
