I can't tell you how helpful this group has been to me at various
times. Thank you.
Yes, the "ME" generation now has our beloved Apple to thank for their
own branding name. I do think it's an odd name, but just think- we
started with the iLife apps. iTunes, iMovie, iDVD, iWeb, iWork, after
all those 'eyes', it was a short order to make us think of only ME.
Let's think more universally, more beyond ourselves. When we think of
Apple's MobileMe, and the @me stuff, imagine it stands for "ME =
Mostly Everyone" (I can't be all-inclusive when some PC owners are so
down-right hardheaded!) That way, we'll start our own revolution.
As the Apple turns...

Bill, Micou, that is -- you have been so helpful to ME, reiterating
to Harry the new .me etc which I had just about forgotten. Thank you.
But you know, this constant "me" has me a bit upset.
This "ME" generation which seems to be so entirely wrapped up with
the "me" ,the self, forgetting that life is about others, too,
finds its technological epitome in this Apple logo "MobileMe". -
Well, I could go on philosophizing, but I will leave this up to
those in the group who are so inclined.
