Subject:

"The new Macbook. Knows all the hot spots."

Gotta love AD!

I daresay the Apple Marketing department and the Engineering department haven't been fully communicating of late - no way would Apple be so tongue-in-cheek about a fairly faulted product.

In light of the terrible death of that lady onboard one of their ships, it's not as bad as that P&O Cruises ad they ran for a short stint, showing a bunch of bikini clad women lounging on deckchairs with the slogan: Looking for seamen.

Hot spots - like when one puts one's hooves in it.
It like all great ideas, seemed like a good idea at the time ...
