No, I don't think you do. if you knew anything about Macs you would appreciate
them a lot more. Sure, there are differences in the way the machines run, but
just because you don't need to piss around with CONFIG.SYS, .INI files and
all the
other shit that goes on in PCs doesn't mean to say that any particular situation
cannot be resolved in some way, usually in a much simpler manner.

Before you go on and on even more about how bad Apple and Macs are, give a
thought to the people who created the system that you use to access these
newsgroups. Do you know who they are? They are APPLE COMPUTER, INC.

Without Apple, you would not be here to discuss (I use the term lightly in your
case) which system is better than any other (answer: whichever one lets the
individual do the job he needs to do in the most effective manner). In
case you're
not aware, Apple created AppleLink Personal Edition as a public version of their
own AppleLink online service. They sold it a few years back to a company
called America Online, and you now use that to reach the rest of the world.

Give the world a break, calm down, think for a minute, and just remember
that there are millions of people in the world, each of whom has their own
needs, opinions, and desires. Who are you to tell them what to do when you
know so little yourself. Respect others and realise your own limitations, and
the world will be a better place.
