Oh...My...God........The horror. 

If HCB was there with his PowerMac, then I guess we have the 
definite, ultimate endorsement of the digital age.

I *was* kidding (somewhat). But not really. Obviously, it's a free 
country, but there's this kitschy-factor about those software 
programs. I probably am some old 
stick-in-the-mud-wannabe-purist, so I don't want to say yes to 
these newfangled sissy programs. What will be next, if we start 
buying fake-border software? I just say: Friends Don't Let 
Friends Buy Cheesy Software. This is my version of Tough Love.

But, hey, have at it. This is America.
