Anyone notice that Dell is advertising for Apple now? I was watching a Dell ad showing quick shots of engineers in the field with laptops while the voice over postulated the business owners remarks about where he would buy computers to get the most reliable operating system, etc... But the laptops in the visual have the upside down grey/white Apple logo on the back of their flipped up active matrix displays, and the engineers are using them. The intended message to buy Dell for Windows OS is completely lost in the vague references and the message that gets through is one of the field personnel going against the dictates of upper management. Well! That was my interpretation. HerbVic
