Gotcha. What I meant was, its lpretty sad to see all the Mac users get so
exited over little things.

I mean, it seems the general user public for the Macintosh about wets its
pants at even the thought of multitasking. Even though Unix/Amiga have been
doing it for eons.

Its like locking a kid up, and giving him a rock to play with... The kid will
be totally exited over the rock, meanwhile you and me look at a million rocks
every day.

I consider Mac users to be deprived children. Im lucky I have an Amiga....

Ive spoiled myself.
