I certainly agree. Look at the Macintosh classical bomb, for
example. There the significance of the crash is presented with
something that already has heavy negative connotations. Specifically,
it is NOT a "sad Mac". If we don't want to feel like we just imitate
Apple, the bomb can be replaced with things like a car wreck, a
or a smashed computer, etc.
