I never have understood why that ad is called "Toasted Bunnies"... I get the toasted part, but the bunnies escape me...

It's a reference to the special clothing that you must wear inside a chip plant. The spacesuit-like uniforms are normally white, and they evidently reminded someone of rabbits, and the garb came to be called "bunny suits."

I confess that I could never quite see this, either (no fur, ears or tail, for one thing), but I guess I simply lack the necessary imagination.

And the advert makes it even tougher to figure out, by using a blue-colored suit.

Think "A Christmas Story". Remember what Ralphie got from his aunt, and his mother made him wear? That was a bunny suit. I am pretty sure that's the kind of bunny suit the work garb was named after.

Apple was still pushing the twice as fast as Pentium thing even before they started using it to promote the G4. The thing I want to know is if the G3 was already twice as fast without Altivec, then how come the G4 wasn't more than twice as fast with it???

Because Intel, also was releasing faster processors, in order to keep up. 😉
