YOU don't have a computer?  You are not computer illiterated?  Where the
hell you get onto internet and these newsgroups!!!  I saw all your posts
are in MAC groups, so obvious are you just a stupid MAC HEAD.  GET A
LIFE MAN!  I am amused by you pathetic helpless Mac heads.  Switch to
low cost PC now, that is the only way to keep your investments in
computer.
