I received another email telling me about my iTools membership of all things today...
Dear iTools member,
Today we announced .Mac, pronounced "Dot Mac," that replaces the Apple iTools service. In the two and a half years since we introduced iTools, both the demand for Internet services and the cost of providing them has increased dramatically. As a result, we're no longer able to offer iTools for free. Instead, we are introducing a new paid membership program that will allow us to continually enhance and expand our Internet services offerings for our customers.
In addition to delivering dramatically enhanced versions of popular services like Mac.com Email, HomePage, and iDisk, .Mac includes all-new features like industry-leading virus protection, hassle-free data backup software, and more. And, as a member, you'll also get updates whenever new features are added. In fact, there are several great new services coming with the release of Mac OS X v10.2. So your .Mac membership grows with you over time.
Click here for all the details on .Mac
For the next two months, we invite you to explore what .Mac has to offer. Your iTools account will remain active until September 30th, and will also act as your .Mac trial account where you can try out the new service. As a thank-you for pioneering the growth of these services with us, you'll receive a special rate of $49.95 for your first year's .Mac membership — a full $50 off the standard rate of $99.95.
If you choose not to join .Mac, your iTools account will be turned off on September 30th. Join before then to keep your account active and receive your special $49.95 rate. And keep an eye on your mailbox. We'll be sending reminders and tips for getting started with .Mac.
Sincerely,
Apple Computer
Interesting...any ideas why I got this again?:confused:
