I run more windows and unix machines than I care to count and less macs than I'd like but the facts are the facts. If even a site like slashdot.org, which is made by linuxhead for linuxheads, understand the place, use and advantages of the macintosh (and I mean this in their general approach to Mac and Apple, when there is one) then maybe it is not just that I am touchy, but that I like to let the facts subsist on their own. They are sensible enough without the trampling around. Because that't what they are, right? facts... Facts don't need a helping hand to be truer, they just need people not muddling them up..:) Eduo --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Eduardo Gutierrez de Oliveira Mythago//On eduo@ciateq.mx ICQ# 3824675 Centro de Investigacion CIATEQ,A.C. -- MEXICO Research Center Queretaro General Electric Center of Excellence - Manager of Information Systems +------------------------------------------------------------+ | Ensure that you have read the CircleMUD Mailing List FAQ: | | http://democracy.queensu.ca/~fletcher/Circle/list-faq.html | +------------------------------------------------------------+
