I said it. > jeremy mereness Well, I sure can't argue with any of that.... But, like you say, I'm not going to put my //e & //gs in the garage.

And I will continue to promote //'s in our schools, etc. (Not MAC's, they can't afford them) Don't give up hope yet. Apple hasn't accually killed the goose that laid the golden egg.
