As a user of minis and micros using DOS, OS/2, *nix as well as the MacOS, I cant believe that so many would be so involved in their "own" architecture and OS that they cant admit that there are other valid ways of doing things. A GUI (Graphical User Interface) is well suited to doing some things, just as a command driven interface is suited to doing other things. A GUI is more cumbersome at some things that are easy in a command driven one, as a command driven interface is more cumbersome at doing some things that are a piece of cake under a GUI. Whats the big deal? Use what works for you! _________________________________________________________________________ Randy Thompson | rht@smsdpg.UUCP -- Office SMS Data Products Group, Inc. | rht%tailchasr@smsdpg.UUCP -- mac@home 703/648-9400 | _________________________________________________________________________ * Constructive criticism is always appreciated * Send Flames to: Trash%tailchasr@smsdpg.UUCP _________________________________________________________________________
