so ... what conclusion should one draw from this? When the Apple guys spelled
it differently, what did they change?
Maybe we can put some of this stuff to rest ... for now.

<pedantic>My dictionary says John McIntosh
discovered a late-maturing
variety of red apple in Ontario in 1796. Said variety of apple is now named
for him. Apple Computer chose a different spelling to name a line of their
computers to play on the word "apple", but to be different.</pedantic

It's spelled WITH the 'a' in it at the
grocery store ... they are a mite
tart,
but make decent pie ...
Humm... I'll have to check that if I go to the store tonight, I could
have sworn they list them as McIntosh Apples on the shelf tag and the
little annoying fruit stickers stuck on them.
