...Apple survive? Sure, and the spotted owl will probably hang in there too. The Mac remains the most usable, intuitive operating system around (this writer still loyally totes his ultra-light Powerbook Duo on any trip that's going to strand him overnight within crouching distance of a phone jack), and it will never disappear entirely.

The $65 millionish feature is based on the best-selling roman a clef that portrays an ambitious Governor named Jack Stanton whose presidential campaign is rocked by bimbo eruptions and accusations of draft dodging.

"I loved him. And he loved me. But there was nothing to do... he had another destiny. And so had I," said von Post, who was 21 when she claims to have met the then-36-year-old senator on the French Riviera, in the summer of 1953. If these sort of attacks come in threes, Ted may want to watch his back...
