"Macs simply work" has to be recognised not as an ontological statement - a
statement about what is -  but rather as an apriori assumption. When confronted
by something which might tend to disconfirm the assumption one must simply
adjust one's perception.

I think this is really the necessary step - we PC guys really need to "get with
the program" -- surrender to the greater power of Steve and the Mac. I know you
want to. 

Perhaps it would help if we used this simple phrase as a mantra. Try it.  Just
sit in the lotus position for 20 minutes night and morning and repeat the magic
words "Macs simply work". (Being careful not to share this mantra with anyone
else as it may dilute its spiritual power.)

Remember the fault is not in reality but in ourselves.

Shanti.
