Title: Awww, how sweet....

This isn't quite the right thread for this but I don't quite think there is a right thread, this one is the closest one I think:

http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/main_news.cfm?NewsID=5214 (http://www.macworld.co.uk/news/main_news.cfm?NewsID=5214)

I love the new name!  Doesn't Apple have bigger fish to pick on? I can think of more appropriate ways to try and persuade more *NIX users to move to Apple than to piss them off.  Now I am sure if tex9 had money they would have won the case (just as Lindows did) but it's not worth fighting over, and the new name is fitting and will be a constant reminder.  And it save's on the ol' checkbook.

Of course the name isn't as original as I thought, but I still like it, and the thread regarding the name changing and history here:

They'll never persuade much Linux users to go to apple. Rock the house for 0 dollars(just install Linux and throw out wind0ze), or rock the house for $3000 dollars. Your call.  (http://smile.gif)
