About this site

For six years, the Internet Nexus served as my technology blog, but I've since started blogging at the SuperSite Blog instead. If you're looking for the blog, please head there. --Paul

Get it right: It's MacBook Pro, Not MacBook

This is my official call for news outlets, bloggers, and other media to get Apple product names right in their headlines. If you're writing about the MacBook Pro, please use the name "MacBook Pro," and not "MacBook," in your headlines. Please.

This happens all the time. The latest example is ZDNet's Merom MacBooks for the holidays which, as you must have suspected by now, discusses the next MacBook Pro, not the MacBook. This is just the latest example. And I'm tired of it. When I see what looks like a MacBook-specific story, I would appreciate it if it were actually about the machine I care about.

Please. :)
