Does Apple use (website, packaging etc.)?

I can't seem to find it anywhere.

Is it a Helvetica relative?

For $700 regular (or dirt cheap with EDU discount) we have Web Objects.

Adobe supplies (sells) tons of great fonts, including web specific ones, and cross-platform ones (Opentype fonts).
Apple supplies lots of primary fonts in Mac OS 10, MS Office adds some of their own, and Adobe products like Illustrator and Photoshop often add a slew of fonts of theeir own.

Arial is popular for email & web. There are thousands of fonts available, just check out Adobe.com

I've got about 5,000 fonts, just too lazy to wade through them all - I'll check the ones selected.

I'm setting up my photography website and would like to use that font in some of the web images.

Thanks to all for your suggestions!
