I'm sorry if I have offended you. Please understand, that
english is not my native language, and it is difficult for me to express
emotions and humour in greater detail. I also meant it as kind of a
joke, as the war between operating systems is a bit silly; like when
people argue about whether Campagnolo or Shimano is the best. Everybody
knows Campagnolo is far superior ;-)
Still I prefer the Mac, and belonging to the minority group
(which is very much so here in Denmark) makes me a bit defensive. Like
small dogs barking a lot more than big ones, who know sheer size is an
important factor.

You try writing in a foreign language. It isn't easy. As the
internet is worldwide, and the standard language is english, please try
to forgive us strangers, when we are a bit clumsy.
A Mac with Windows NT must be like a fish with a bicycle
(Shimano equipped) :-)

That's exactly what I mean. We use a Mac, so my wife can use it
too. It is much easier, even a woman kan do it ;-)

I'll have a caf� au lait with a croissant beurre.
Shake hands?
