Mac / Apple almost collapsed several times under Jobs’ leadership; it wasn’t until he started pushing those pretentious “black / white / COLOR?!?!” ad campaigns that they came back from the brink.

I am intensely curious to know how this made it through federalization, and if they really are in America already. Their website does have a link to request a test drive, and it accepted my info, so we’ll see if they really get back to me with some way to actually drive one of these, here in the U S of Aaaaaaay
