Mike, what is your objective here?  I suspect that you have a desire to sell
us readers on the merrits of the nExt computer, but if you look at your above
statement, you appear as effective as a vacuum cleaner salesman who enters a
potential customers home, urinates on his beloved vacuum cleaner, wipes
excrement on his floors and walls, insults him, and trys to sell him/her a
kerby using overbearing and rude tactics!  I mean really, how can you expect
to carry on an intelegent discussion with a group that is growing very tired
of you by using statements like that? (I hope that I'm not overstepping my
bounds by assuming that this group is tiring of Mike, if so, let me know).

I own very few games - they are so good that I would preoccupy myself with 
them - the majority of my software is DTP, WP, Graphics, Utilities, and 
Compilers/interpreters, all of which fit my standards.  I'm not saying that
you should use these, I'm just saying that you should know what you'
re talking about before speaking.
