Oh god this is just too easy.  Gary you really are as bad, in your own way,
as a Mac zealot.  Why watch the Comedy Channel when I can read your messages?

In answer to your question:

1) Launching a wordprocessor and reading in a document.

	DOS	<name of program> <name of document>

	Mac	<clickety click> (on document)

2) Deleting a file

	DOS	era <name of file>

	Mac	<click> ...drag... <kcilc> (thats releasing a press)

3) Selecting a word in a document.

	DOS	<lots of keys to move> <Ctrl-Alt-Fn-37>

	Mac	<clickety click>

4) Selecting a couple of sentences in the middle of a paragraph

	DOS	<lots of keys to move>
		Function-Whatever
		<lots more keys>
		Function-Whatever

	Mac	<click> ...drag... <kcilc>

I'll give you this; you are much more entertaining than the Mac zealot you
are fighting with.
