Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. The world is moving : >towards Mac without realizing it. Exactly what makes Win95 even remotely similar to MacOS? Please elaborate. If you're saying that it is similar because it's a GUI, you're taking an ignorant and simplistic approach. Macintosh is not synonymous with GUI, and, though they pioneered it, GUI was an inevitability all along. I guess you're saying that Unices which bundle Xwindows are imitating apple, too, by your freakish logic. I guess, then, that Apple imitated BSD by going 32bit. And Apple seems to imitate PC architecture, maybe that should tell you something, too (SCSI, PCI, etc) And who is Apple trying to fool, calling MacOS System 7.5? We all know it's not System V, dammit! Also, Macs are emulating PCs now....those copycats! AT&T and Microsoft should be flattered.
