You have got to be kidding! An IBM is easier to use than an Apple II??????
I'm a teacher and I am considered to be some kind of computer whiz because I
happen to own one. Our foreign language department ordered a Packard Bell
clone and there isn't a day that goes by that they aren't asking me how to use
it! They have had it a year and still don't know how to install programs. When
I put these same teachers in my GS lab they take to the machine like it is
perfectly natural. How can you say that IBM's are easier to use than a GS?
If you want good graphics on an IBM you have to buy a VGA card. If you want
sound you can't even begin to compare to the GS. All of this is standard on my
GS.  I know that it sounds trite but the best computer is the one people use.
In my school that is the GS.
Have a Nice Day!
