It basically boils down to: I don'tlike what he has to say, so lets all shut him up permanently! Say, Mike, have you ever heard of the 1st amendment? Do you think that a person does not have a right to an opinion? Many people would not even consider his post opinion, but rather, objective fact. In the end it is insecure whiners like yourself who give Macs a bad name. If the Mac is such a great machine, then what do you have to worry about? Sounds to me like you know deep in your heart how truly inferior and overpriced the Macs are, and don't like being reminded. And before you ask, I am not an MS-DOS fanatic. Indeed, I am not a "fanatic" of any particular architecture, but I know how to spot a marketing rip-off when I see it. Oh, if you all want to try to revoke my priveledges on usenet, here is my Usenet administrators internet address: root@yoda.eecs.wsu.edu. Go ahead, he'll get a good laugh out of it. Have a nice day, Phil Cooper
