It occurred to me, after you mentioned that they didn't get the quote right, that they probably said "Mach" and the writer didn't know anything about it, so he/she heard "Mac" instead. Wrong, of course, but a little bit more understandable. If you read the sentence above with "Mac" instead of "Macintosh", then substitute "Mach", it sort of makes sense how it could get so screwed up. -- Glenn Reid NeXTmail: glenn@rightbrain.com RightBrain Software 415-326-2974 (NeXTfax 326-2977) Palo Alto, California Font Hotline: 800-525-FONT
