yes, you are correct. :) it did make me think. i guess what makes me sad, though (i know, i'm overreacting) is that a lot of people don't realize the slogan's breaking the rules on that level. so the slogan just encourages sloppy grammar.
but maybe the rulebreaking is a kind of subtext here, and it doesn't really matter whether people catch on. what matters is that it's a catchy slogan. (i'm an apple fanatic, so i can't really blame them.)
sigh,
