News - Still another study shows that moderate drinking helps men reduce their risk of heart attacks: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/09/health/09DRIN.html



Comment - "Dr. Kenneth Mukamal of Harvard Medical School, who led the study, speculated that regular, moderate drinking is beneficial because it helps keep the blood thinned."



News - A story to warm Melissa's Mac heart: Macworld Expo introduces goodies: http://www.nytimes.com/2003/01/09/technology/circuits/09POGUE-EMAIL.html



Comment - One of the highlights of last week's trip to California was our visit to the Apple retail store in Palo Alto. It's a shrine to all things Apple and a real tribute to Apple's vision of clean, functional industrial design. It's brilliant marketing that significantly enhances the image and perceived value of Apple products.



You can't get around it...Apple products simply look cooler than Windows products. Do they work so much better than Windows products that it justifies the huge price premium? Maybe not...but, it always costs more to have the best.
