Please, no more anecdotes about supposed horrible product quality. Horror stories like this lead to unfounded fear - e.g. one's tendency to overestimate the danger involved in air travel based on media coverage of a few dramatic crashes. Anecdotal evidence <> proof. What *would* be interesting are statistics gathered from a large, unbiased pool of users (i.e. corporate microsystems group). Gathering statistics from comp.sys.mac readers who *choose to reply* isn't an unbiased sample. .Bob. -- Bob Kitzberger Internet : telesoft!rlk@ucsd TeleSoft uucp : ...!ucsd.ucsd.edu!telesoft!rlk 5959 Cornerstone Ct.
