Microsoft CEO Signs Student's Mac Laptop

Liz Str8 writes "When Steve Ballmer, CEO of Microsoft, spoke at a Nashville Technology Council event held at Trevecca Nazarene University, he participated in a 'meet and greet' session with students from local colleges and universities. At that event, a Trevecca student asked Ballmer to sign his Mac laptop. In an action that Tech Flash blogger Todd Bishop described as 'a scene that will make Mac fans feel like they're watching Thomas Kinkade scribble on a Van Gogh,' Ballmer graciously agreed to do so — right across the Mac logo."

Why do people like to write MAC in ALL CAPITALS?

I've seen this a few times, so let's clear the air:
Mac = The brand-name for a line of computers that Apple, Inc. develops, markets, and sells.
MAC = Media Access Control (Ethernet, etc.), or Mandatory Access Control (SELnux, etc.)

Re:I wonder what he wrote on it.

It looks like he wrote a note or something on it.

As far as I can read it, he wrote "Need a new one?"
