Mac

Standing in the dock at Southampton / Trying to get to Holland or France / The man in the mac said / You've got to go back / You know they didn't even give us a chance

Is there any mac and cheese left?

Who wrote "kick me" on my back? Who put a spider in my mac?

Nothing tastes better to me than a big ol' bowl of super creamy, cheesy mac!

Have you got a light, Mac?

TIME was, the stereotypical New York cabdriver was a gabby if slightly gruff man with a Brooklyn accent who knew every pothole in every street in every borough and greeted people with the world-weary query, "Where to, Mac?"

Although our Macs served us well, in those early, dark years Macintosh users were effectively excommunicated by the computer establishment.

Built by Matthew Weed, a blind political science and history major, and Victor Grigorieff, a computer science and psychology major, the system is based on a Macintosh IIfx, although it can run on earlier models, since each Mac program has a similar interface.

Apple, IBM, and Motorola have teamed up to produce this 32-bit chip that will be used in future Apple Macintoshes and IBM PCs. PowerPC systems will run Mac or Unix programs, and possibly Windows software in the future.

If you invest the time to learn one Windows or Mac program, you'll automatically have mastered the basic skills to use hundreds of others.

As this shift accelerates, finding software that works with a particular operating system will be less of a concern. People will be able to base decisions about which OS to use strictly on merit, and on personal preference. For me, if the choice is between struggling to configure every feature and being able to boot up and get to work, at long last I choose the Mac.

Oddly, the big difference didn't come in our user ratings, where we expected the famously friendly Mac interface to shine. Apple's popular commercials have painted the picture in stark terms: There are two types of people, Mac people and PC people.

When operating on customer MAC (C-MAC) and service MAC (S-MAC) addresses, PBB uses a new backbone MAC (B-MAC) address. The B-MAC address is added at the edge of the PBB network, that is administered by a carrier VPN or a carrier-of-carriers VPN.
