It's the theory of the Big Lie - say something often enough - no matter how ridiculous - and eventually there are people who believe it. Paradoxically, the bigger the lie, the easier it gets swallowed. Speaking of which, they finally showed the CNN program comparing WARP and 95. The part where the Paid Microsoft Liar 'explained' (with an absolutely straight face) that the reason that WARP blew 95 out of the water when it came to multitasking was because WARP decided to sacrifice backward compatibility for performance, whereas 95 was more concerned with backward compatibility just about knocked me out of my chair. <<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>> [RJ] rj friedman Taibei, Taiwan rjf@tpts1.seed.net.tw <<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>><<*>>
