Talking Apple's new font: Frutiger

Maybe a stupid question, but is there anyone who can give a link to Apple's new font named 'Frutiger'?

Thankx,

AppleWatcher

Huh? Neh, Apple Garamond was the Think Different font.
Now they have a new font (Mac OS X 10.2 Jaguar font) named Frutiger...

Adobe Frutiger is another font (check the "e" to be certain).

Myriad is the font in question.

I thought they were using Lucidia Grande now? Frutiger is not new, it was around when I was in design school 5 years ago. And the version of garamond they had used was hand tweaked by Apple. I really liked it, but as with all of Apple's design choices I think I will grow to like the new one just as much.
On the other hand, Apples design choices I dont think I will ever agree with are:
"Puck" mouse
Blue and White G3
Mirror mac
New pics of rumored "iPhone", (they cant be real can they, it looks like something Apple designed just before the first G4)...
