Hello!

Does anyone actually like Celine Dion??!

A nice little introduction -- doesn't say much, but gets the public's mind racing.

Also a nice warning shot across the bow of competitors. I know what they say in public, but in private they look at what the iPod did to the MP3 player market and are, er, pooping themselves.

z, I wonder the same thing.

I'm not sure why, but just about everything about her rubs me the wrong way. There's nothing about her music that I enjoy, and watching her perform-- she seems so affected.

She seemed to have a good run in Las Vegas; she may even still be there. But I don't get her.

It's called packaging. Create a personna and sell it like any other packaged goods. Ask the folks at iPhone,it's just what they do and if they do it right it takes a while before most people notice she can't sing.

That's the point where most Apple products and the packaging hang together because in the end they, for the most part, can sing. (Lisa - who said Lisa, oh! you meant Newton)
