oh, what year was that?

| Macintosh, IMHO, is a toy. I have yet to find it useful for much of
| anything that I can't do with Windows, and with Windows I can do a
| whole lot more. I find the Macintosh very frustrating because it is
| so difficult to get close to the hardware.

1. what are you trying to do that requires you to get close to the
   hardware?

2. what can the windows box do that the mac can't?

| Does Microsoft have a monopoly? Is it illegally using that monopoly to gain
| monopolies in other markets? I don't know. I'm not a lawyer. The Justice
| Department has investigated Microsoft a number of times (and may again now
| that the deal with Apple has taken place) and, other than a slap on the
| wrists for the nature of their contracts with computer manufacturers over
| the terms of licensing the OSs, the Justice Department has pretty much left
| them alone. For me, though, whatever Microsoft's business practices are, I
| love Microsoft software. I find it easy to use, robust, and
| powerful.

in the above paragraph you ponder wether Microsoft is in fact a
monopoly, then you state that you're not competent to answer that
question and to round it off you state that you love Microsoft
software.

exactly what are you trying to say, Stephen?
