The shipment date of >April 1st make me wonder. > It is a joke, admitted in our local paper already, and MacWorld has indicated they have had to put their phone on a recorder to answer the number of calls they have been getting. Seems like a lot of people have bitten hook, line, and sinker and are claiming major problems in purchase order flow, etc. As my own editorial comment, I found the article not at all funny. It was far too long without any humorous exaggerations and the April 1 delivery date was all that indicated it wasn't a true story. Now Philip Kahn's speach about his new operating system, the "BS2"..., now that was funny.
