True. I was not worked up, I was just scratching my head thinking... what is this person's problem? I have been on the usenet for over 3 years now so I am no stranger to people trying to start Mac vs. PC wars or people insulting each other in Mac vs. PC wars. This person however is responding to threads like, "Acrobat refuses to launch and asks for the symbol font?" with answers like, "Oh, you have to reformat your hard drive because Mac's suck" Nice eh? People like this just boggle my mind. -- ________________ David Lewis lewisda@tuns.ca www.tuns.ca/~lewisda
