By Any Other Name

From the old site in January 2006, just after the MacBook Pro was introduced:

maybe after a bit they'll stop calling this thing a "MacBook" such that I never own anything with that name

At the time I was on my second PowerBook, and the new MacBook Pro name just didn't sound right. Today I'm typing this on my second MacBook Pro, and its been years since I had thought about the MacBook name seeming odd.

Does that mean the name wasn't as bad as I originally thought? Or just that you can get used to anything over time?
