Guilty! I am Mr. Extreme MACINTOSH Zealot, and Windows is a FAR cry from
what I can do at work. I carry my own Mac to and from work with me so when
the network goes down (occasionaly) or I have to reboot Windows (7 - 12
times a day just running corporate apps) I can flip over to my Mac and
continue working. Ever try to use Word to look for code occurences of Y2K
issues in 90,000+ lines of code. See how long it takes. Try the same thing
in BBEdit (Mac ONLY). Sorry, but this is a very sore subject for me living
the daymare. I could go on and on and on, but won't. I can only give you MY
zealots opinion which is Windows = Mac OS. NOT!!! Whoops, on second thought
you're right, I haven't rebooted my Powerbook for three months now. Sorry
'bout that...
