Oh?

We had a DOS user over to our house a couple of weeks ago, and he was
looking at a program on our Mac.  One of his comments way, "And it's
got full mouse support, too!"  Well, I was kinda taken aback--you have
to understand, "full mouse support" isn't something I've ever really
thought about before....

Anyway, I've decided the appropriate comeback is "Yes, and full screen
support, too!"  Since I didn't think of it at the time, I'll just pass
it along, and maybe someday one of you can use it.... :-)
