David S. notes that fast food chain Burger King is in the process of installing kids play places in its stores, similar to McDonald's. In the Burger King in Melbourne, Florida, kiosks running Mac OS 9.1 will take a picture of the child at the console and place them into a fun scene digitally.

    Uhhmm

    That's right, "Victory?" poster: Steve Jobs decides who can and cannot buy an iMac on a case-by-case basis, and he can play the iMac n*** and snatch back computers from those he deems unworthy. He ought to refuse to sell iMacs to any of those damned carnivores! And people who smoke! And those who smell bad! Not to mention those over the age of 40 and those who don't wear Armani suits. Right? ...right?

    Nasty... do people who eat at American fast food places know how to use a computer? That's an "inner city" thing, no?
