	One comment, then this goes in the kill file:

	The Macintosh OS is infinitely superior to the NeXT on for me
	because of a single feature:

	It runs on a Macintosh.

	Now, since this group is called comp.sys.mac.misc, I would be
	inclined to believe that this is the only feature we need discuss.
	I don't own a NeXT, nor do most people reading this group.  Hence
	a NeXT OS can perform any useful function it likes, and it will still
	not help me in the slightest.  comp.misc strikes me as a MUCH
	better place to fight this battle.  For 90%+ of the readers of this
	group (c.s.m.m), the whole discussion is irrelevant and boring,
	and not everyone has (or knows how to use) kill capability.

	Thank you for your patience.  GOOD BYE!
