I'm starting a contest now.
Every time some new person comes in here and writes "MAC" instead of "Mac". Politely correct him/her, and then report your point to this thread if you are the first person to respond to the thread with this correction.
The person who gets the most points in a month will receive a free 60 day .Mac trial, courtesy of MacNN and this contest.
I will be the referee. Points will not be granted if you are rude to the person.

This is less inane and more boring than I predicted.

Can we shift this to a contest about gun control and post cat pictures?

Too bad Jawbone isn't new here, or else somebody could score with him.
I like Jawbone likes when people score with him?

OR what if someone types a nick wrong, we correct them. For example if someone says "bes" we make a new post just to correct them and say "no it's besson"
Oh wait, forget that. You've already attempted that. 
Darn all these GOOD IDEAS besson comes up with first...

So I saw design saying "MAC" in another thread a bunch of times and I knew there had to be a reason for it. I get it now.

Not good enough. I want a lifetime Dot Mac subscription and a copy of Adobe Master Collection CS3, Bess.

What I want to know is, how besson expects anyone else to start any decent topics when he takes all the good ideas.

I love when someone says, "I want to call Mac and complain!" or "You should call Mac to get tech support for the Mac."

I think .MAC is worth every penny of the free trial. And I like Apples to.

Is it possible to do a global find and replace edit to all your previous posts? You know, maybe change Mac to MAC?
Just wondering.

Oh, and my Mac has at least two MACs. And my wife's Mac has at least two MACs too. Golly, but this is gonna be fun!

I say Louis Armstrong's version was better.
But then again I first knew the song from an old McDonald's commercial. The one with the moon playing piano singing "make it MAC toniiiiight!"
