   The product that Apple is marketing is the MIDI Manager, which also is
   not a type of musical synthesizer.  The MIDI Manager is a software
   system that allows computer programs and MIDI-capable devices to be
   interconnected via software in complex ways that are difficult or
   impossible to do with MIDI cable.


The whole point of the agreement was that Apple(All you need is Love)
were promised by  Apple(All you need is lawyers) that the latter would not
use the trademark in the context of making music.  When this situation was
covered in the Grauniad a while back, this was made quite clear.  It would 
appear that Sculley is in Schtuck.  Where do we send sympathy cards?
And have any filkers put this to music?

Oh, by the way, the Independent is in the uk-uucp maps as the following:
several other papers have people on public access sites; Jack Schofield, 
computer editor of the Grauniad is jack@cix.uucp; a lot of British computer 
journos use that site. To reach UK cites, route via ukc, but don't sent 
large unsolicited chunks , as the reciever pays...
