Oh!  The piercing wit!  The keen insight that marks a true defender of 
Wintel!  I might as well give up now.

Are you implying that Copland _won't_ be backwards-compatible?  From 
personal experience I've found that MacOS is far more 
backwards-compatible that Windoze.

Actually, I hate Microsoft because it puts out poorly coded, half-assed 
excuses for real applications.  I hate it because I have to use Win 3.11 
at work, and it crashes at least once a day.  I hate it because I see a 
company thats ego has gotten in the way of quality.  And I hate it more 
because of small-minded fools such as yourself, who post little comments 
like 'Uh-huh' and 'Suuure.' and 'When pigs fly.' and think it 
constitutes a rational argument rather than realizing that it's little 
more than sandbox whining.

Jeff, sick of all the 'bigger dick' PC-Mac flamewars
