For developers, a capital "I" usually means interface -- in code certainly but then often applied in life as only geeks can do. I have fond memories of not too many years ago, wandering around the Red Light district in Amsterdam with fellow developers Stephen Forte and Richard Campbell, discussing the important new "IToilet" interface that would revolutionize our interaction with commodes. Probably just the space cakes talking. Ah, to be young[er] again.... :-) I always assumed the lowercase "i" was either meant to be something similar to devs but mean something like "information" to normal (i.e., non-developer) types. Then, like any concept is has to be [over]used everywhere. Maybe someone from Apple who has talked to their marketing folks lately could comment.... MichKa
