Was it worth it?" > - Richard Bach, _One_ While I am not a diehard fanatic about how terrible the mac is (i don't think it is, it has it's uses, [ie, a doorstop or aquarium :-)], and I agree that it is a good thing to know somethng about the other machines out there, I do feel like *** 841 *** lines of text on the mac in the apple2 list is a bit excessive, especially since the summaries posted previously provide enough information to see the benefits to the mac users. Sorry if I seem out of line, but I don't really care about the nut and bolts gory details of how a mac works under version 6.0 vs. 7.0. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ GreyMan ----------> and the <--------- DRAGON ..............................
