I'm only a semi-oldtimer in the computer world. I started on a IBM XT with of all things a 4 color CGA monitor and a 10MB hard drive. Unless you count Atari 400, Comodore Vic 20's and other weird stuff. I'm really jealous of the Macs just because they aren't ruled by micro$oft and it's endless stream of patches, bugs, exploits, viruses, and worms. I guess that's one advantage Apple has with it's lack of availible software. The virus/worm/hackers don't want to support OSX either... I've been a computer tech for 15 years. I'm authorized on HP, Compaq, Toshiba, Fujitsu, and a few more. MCSE.. And with all my "knowlege" I feel really bad when a mac person wants me to help them. Most times all I can give them is a dumb look and point them to someplace that will charge them an arm and a leg. Oh well. Maybe Linux will dethrone micro$oft. Lord knows someone must be able to do a better job. - Joe
