[net.rumor] Apple advertising stunt?

bdp@ptsfa.UUCP (Barbara Petersen) (10/10/84)

I've heard rumours that Apple has bought *all* of the ad space in the Election
Special (Nov. 7) issue of Newsweek-- 40 pages worth, at a cost of $2-3 million.
Has anyone else heard anything about this?

                                                 Barbara Petersen

Indded, it has been confirmed by Apple, Newsweek, ComputerWorld and InfoWorld
(among others...).  It seems Apple Computer has all 40 some odd pages in the
post election special...   'Should be nifty!
