Do you know the real meaning of PC ? A PC is a Personal Cilice. If you check in a good dictionary you will find that a *cilice* is a shirt made of coarse rough animal hair worn next to the skin as a penance. This is the image that gets in my mind each time I have to work on an IBM-PC or compatible. :-) A former PC user, now a Macintosh fan. -- -=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=- | Gille Missout, IREQ | missout@ireq.hydro.qc.ca | CP 1000, Varennes | or | QC, Canada, J3X 1S1 | 514-652-8084 (office) 514-653-7706 (home)
