	I view of Apple's use of the Mac{name_of_program} naming 
convention, I wonder if there might be some conflict with that other 
purveyor of Mac's, the redoubtable MacDonald's chain.  There have 
often been jesting references to MacDonald's getting into the 
information vending business, but I wonder if they haven't given it 
some serious thought.  Anyway, wouldn't it be interesting if there 
developed a trademark war over the user of the "Mac*" appellation?
