Dear All ￜ

A new record - I've just counted 35 Apple Macintosh computers in my office
(and three iPhones - don't ask!).

Which bit are you claiming as the record: the number of machines or that
you can now count to 35?

I have a friend who is a professional Mac troubleshooter who lives in a
converted warehouse, and the wall of his house which separates his lounge
from his kitchen is, literally, nothing more than 200 iMac boxes stacked up.
