Hi,

I've been pondering the options in buying a home computer, to
complement the facilities I have available at work. At work I use sun
workstations, running X, with my principal workhorse being epoch.
Instead of replicating these facilities at home I was considering
buying a Mac LC to complement them. However, I was hoping to be able
to port gnu emacs to the Mac until I uncovered the notice about FSF
boycotting Apple 'cos of their `look and feel' copyrights.

So my question is, do the FSF still advocate a boycott of Apple, and
if not has anyone ported gnu emacs to the Mac?

Thanks

Murray
