   Apple is original, Windoze is just a cheap rip-off. Macs have a nice
user interface. you can rename the hard drive!!! When you stick in a
floppy disk it appears on-screen. Macs have a menubar location where all
the menubars go, unlike windoze, which does not have a menubar when
nothing is open. Windoze can take up 200 mb on your hard disk and a mac
with system 7.6 and a ton of extensions just takes up 100 mb. Programs
for Windoze takes up a lot more RAM than programs for mac. I am using a
really cool Mac to type this up. And if you want something neat, try
doing weird things in the control pannels (you'll see the programmers
sense of humor).

Anyways, what do youlike???????
