qualitay

The word 'quality' is often mis-used to mean 'of good quality' although its true meaning is neutral (good quality, poor quality, etc.)

'Qualitay' is a deliberate misspelling and mis-pronunciation of the word 'quality'. It is used jokingly to mean 'good' -- in other words it absorbs the incorrect meaning assigned by many people to 'quality'.

I think the new iMac G5 looks qualitay.
