I dont know squat about Apple products. Used one of the first Macs for doing graphics work for my publications and thesis, but just graphics.

I did know the CEO (now deceased) of the UK personal computer company Tangerine. It was supposed to be the UK's personal computer answer to Apple and it was fairly successful in the UK and some countries in CONtinental EUrope at the time. He was Barry Muncaster and he used to hunt scams on Ragingbull under the alias Basildon Bond (Baslidon is a town in Essex I bleeve where he had the family castle/manor/estate, and Bond can refer to James or to the fine quality linen papers which I thing have a manufacturing plant in Basildon). He was in the down-lineage of a Baron Muncaster, butt Barry did not have a royalty title as far as I know.

He was quite a character (like you) and he had InnaGrille-level knowledge of the financial industries.

His last CEO gig was with a UK startup that made some type of gelatin coating for pharmaceuticals (and weirdly I think for paper diapers too). it was callt Bioprogress and based in the UK a the time. I think the ticker was OTC:BPRG.

I just DuckDuckGo'ed it and it appears that what is left of it is now in Italy as bioprogress SpA.

Barry has been dead since 2013. Another smoker smoked by lung cancer:
