Personally, I've always been confused about this particular "gloat"...

Doesn't the fact that several kinds of machines are proud to emulate the Mac,
simply demonstrate that the Mac OS is more portable, and is also desirable?

In addition, couldn't a Mac user claim: "I can move from a Mac to an
Amiga or ST or RISC without losing my programs, yet owners of those
computers cannot move to a Mac and do the same."  ??

P.S. :) :)  Different viewpoint, eh?  :-)   kdarling@catt.ncsu.edu
