[Cialug] Apple and Intel

[Stuart Thiessen]

According to E-Week today, they said something about something in the 
Intel platform that will allow it to effectively mark that system as an 
Apple PC.  I'm not much of a hardware guy, so that's the best I can do 
on that without looking up the article.  You should be able to find it 
on E-Week in more detail.

Thanks,

Stuart Thiessen
