BIT: iJoke

Because Connecticut inspires hack bits.

iJoke
I have an iPhone.  We all do, right?  Everyone has to have an iSomething.  The iPhone is cool.  I love it, but can we stop congratulating Apple on their marketing genius?  Everyone applauds Apple's branding like they invented the bridge.  
Isn't Apple branding everything with an i just McDonald's marketing strategy?
Steve Jobs sitting at the drive-thru one day, ordering breakfast, "I'd like an egg McMuffin.. wait a second.. McMuffin.. McComputer? -- Yes!"  
That's not being a genius.  Van Gogh is a genius.  Mozart.  Shakespeare.  If you charge a dollar for a large coffee, and call that the McCafe, that also.
If my aunt Juanita wants to present an all male dance revue at the Ogunquit Playhouse, she doesn't need Harvard Business School to call it Mainely Crotch.
