APPLEVISION Monitor

From: Chris I can't quote a source, but I can say that traditionally, in English, all caps refers to an anacronym. And since MAC has something it stands for, each and every time you refer to a Macintosh as "MAC" you are in fact refering to something other than the Macintosh computer. And typing it as MacIntosh is just simply wrong. Look at any literature by Apple, you will never see it with a capitol I. I think that is a throw off from people that are typing it via the name of the fruit, which is ALSO wrong, since the name of the fruit is McIntosh (no a). Its just a pet peeve... I'm not going to really care if you continue to type it MAC... but doing so shows a gross ignorance of the platform, and really undermines any and all arguments you may have to say for or against it. You can't really take someone seriously in discusssions of a system if they can't refer to it correctly, as it just shows that they have spent so little time dealing with the system, that they clearly can't base their statements on anything educated. It doesn't matter if it is the Mac, or if it is something else. -chris
