I wonder why they took it down.

Apple takes down everything in an acquisition. In general Apple rarely admits that the past or future exists at all.

Apple is a strange mix of buddhism and 1984.

Middle path, present focused, to an extreme, enforced on you whether you want it or not :)

I know you're not supposed to bore anyone by recounting dreams, but the other night I dreamt my MacBook had a virus which booted into Win975.

That reminds me of something I read once on Apple's website one day, that seemed to suggest Apple invented CUPS in 1997. They hired the developer and bought the rights in 2007, so it's fair to say it's theirs, but it was worded as if this was always so.
