        Well, I for myself do it because I like the Atari, and what I can
do with it.  But, not only that but, what's the fun of being part of the
majority?  It doesn't make you strive to be better, you already think you
ARE better.  I for one LOVE to say to all my friends wit PCs and Macs etc.
when they start getting on bandwagons against my "lowly" ST, "Oh, an
Off-Line Reader?  Sure, I got one.  DTP?  Sure, I can do that.  And when
they say, "Yah, but mine's better and can do more!"  I take him/her to my
place and show them up!
        When one gets too big an ego, I can't help but smash it into
little bitty pieces!  Heh.
