But then you should find the palest blue ballwriter you can - it won't copy in a typical copier.

I think a user named Yellow had a sig about this MAC I-MAC thing...

And Georges Pérec pushed the concept even further:

His book "La Disparition" is entirely written without ever using the letter "e".

Certainly one of the most difficult books to translate...

But where there's a challenge, people always rise up to meet it. There actually have been 2 separate translations into English as well as translations into German, Spanish, Turkish, and Swedish.

(Note that the plot summary in that Wikipedia article is itself a lipogram.)

my number 1, all time pet peeve is people who say "acrosst" or "acrossed"

THERE'S NO "T" AT THE END OF "ACROSS"!!!

You could have crossed a bridge on your way to work, but there's no way any one can ever go acrossed something.

oOI feel much better now

All of that is truthful and good, but a far cry from mistyping Mac, iMac or iPod. As in a prior post, making your point is a primary goal. Typing, punctuation, and grammar all aid in attaining that goal.

My first lipogram! I'm so proud. :D

Good job!
But you misspelled "grammer"
:)

Not according to the OS X dictionary.

You misspelled "I don't get it".

I wasn't sure if you were joking or it was one of those rare words with two acceptable spellings. :o

That reminds me, I tip my hat to Google (and other various Search Engines that I do not use) for not being a pain in the rear-end when it comes to typing Mac OS X related stuff in their Search. It could be riduclously stupid, looking for seperate items (Mac, OS, X), but they make it cohesive enough to find what you are looking for.

Seriously though, Apple should have a commercial reinforcing the Mac brand. If they don't, it causes confusion in the market as well as bad PR.

I can see it now... ::Scooby Doo squiggly scene transition::

We at Apple would like to reintroduce you to the Macintosh. And Windows. And Linux. And any other operating system you want to run. Now with the new Intel Core architecture, your possibilities -- business or personal -- are endless.

Oh, and by the way, it's spelled capital M, and lowercase a and c. If it were an acronym, we've been suggested to use "Massively Awesome Computer" if used in such a way.

Cue Apple logo.

It is encouraging to see that even army guys are sometimes able to correctly decode extremely subtle messages ;) .

Followers of this thread might like to read "Eats, Shoots and Leaves" by Lynne Truss. The title is one example of many - is it about a Koala or about a guy who won't pay for his dinner? The comma makes the difference.
