Re: Macintosh

Wow, you are fishing for a long thread here. Let me say only two 
things, then I will stay quiet:

- I will not argue for any superiority of the Mac vs the PC. I will 
only say that I personally own four PCs and four Macs, and I barely 
ever turn on the PCs, unless I am forced to, simply because 
everything I need to do, I do faster and easier on the Mac.

- Even if the Mac was really inferior, I would still hate to live in 
a world where the only choice is a platform controlled by one 
company. Even PC proponents should support Apple, if only because the 
mere possibility of a choice is an incentive for their side to 
innovate.

PS: A third point: look at the importance of viruses, even in this 
group. Let me  lough out loud...
