    The iMac didn't save Apple. It was the $150 million infusion of Microsoft cash in 1997 that saved Apple. Get your facts straight!

    The original VW bug is still made in Mexico and another third-world country I can't remember of. Guess nobodys cares as much for round colorful coputers as they do about cars....
