	I'm sorry, I couldn't let this one go by...

     Of course you realize that if Apple has their way, the beauty and 
elegance you admire will be so strictlyu protected, you'll never see it on
any system but pple. If Windows is so inferior to the Finder, why does Apple
need to sue to protect it? Can't their "beauty and elegance" stand on it's
own in an open marketplace?
