Apple Expo Paris #2

My hair is longer than 0.1mm. I am not wearing a t-shirt stretch-style with flashy colors and a logo just impossible to understand if you're not a member of the tribe. I don't have red sport shoes. I don't wear dockers, I don't wear militar trousers. On another hand, I rarely wear a tie and a jacket.
I'm visible. I mean I'm visible in the middle of a thousand typical french Mac users : I'm not a french Mac user and it's visible. It really seems that almost all the visitors of Apple Expo in Paris belong to the two following categories: artists (including graphics designers), white collars. Weird.
But I'm learning: I saw a Mac peripheral demo'ed and I found it ugly. I found it ugly only because the colors, the plastic, the metal, the global feeling were not matching those of a Mac. Geez, I'm contaminated, I can hear the decontamination team's van rushing to my house. I hope they have Airportwireless network at Institut Pasteur...

Je confirme ce que dit Ludovic... J'ai un Geek Mac User à la maison, il ne remplit pas les conditions décrites au dessus (heureusement...)

> i is in german a pseydonym for shit alias merde.
But pronounced english it sounds like the german word for egg. eggMac, eggPod blablabla
i means shit in German?? that's news to me and last time i checked my native tongue was German. "ihh" is more like "yikes" or any such exclamation...
