Actually, I don't even see it on the Apple website. Even the "intel Core Duo" icon appears to be set in Apple's own Myriad. I can’t find the Intel logo anywhere on the just released Macs.

Even on the the "Y" and "e" pair. JonSel, I think we could get better letterspacing using our wood and metal type. Even on the the “Y” and “e” pair.

"It's a Leap Year" looks like it was set by a blind man. Even Pagemaker 1.0 didn't have letterspacing problems like that. It's deplorable.

Intel's new tagline is "Leap Ahead." I swear I didn't know that when I wrote the headline to this article. That is too funny. Okay.

Like how you'd highlight/circle something important on a sticky-note to-do list. The semi-meaningful ring of the previous version Logan showed isn't as bad as the meaningless swoosh of the current version.

Yippeeeeee! I really doubt that they will be updating their powerbooks in January... though those rumors are leaking out. With most of the major pro apps not being ported yet... they would have to run in the Rosetta environment, therefore dropping their performance. I would instead expect Mac Mini and the new 13" iBook and iBook slim. Man... that swoosh has no business on my new MacIntel Powerbook! Millenium Swoosh! Yippeeeeee!
