Look, Donnie, I admit that Macs have advantages over PC's for
*some* things.  They definitely have the GUI down pat, among
other things.  However, I still stand by my ALR 20386DT, and
will.  If I wanted to hear how wonderful Macs were, I would read
Macintosh newsgroups or talk to one of my MacUser friends.
However, I am here to read about the wonderful world of IBMs and
clones, so please keep your MacSh*t out of here.  Thanks.
