Oh I would trust Peter Jennings at an Apple computer convention over the
people on the internet who have an emotional stake in their own Apple
computer any day.  They didnt just SAY that Apple was having problems,
they actually interviewed industry people as well as several Apple
employees.  But I guess THEY are just a bunch of freakin liars...  As for
M$, I think it is WONDERFUL that they have some Windows 95 troubles.  I
would love to see M$ sink a number of notches, which would breath new life
into the OS market. 

In any case, enjoy your Apple while you can because unless you're rich or 
a business, then the future doesn't include an Apple for you or any other 
Apple lover.  You will likely be buying clones.  Apple intends to drop 
their lower end machines and stick to the highend, which isn't what most 
home buyers/user purchase (nor can they afford it).
