This is what I call real-life advertising.  A lot of us around here could
double for quasimoto; that daily trudge with Mac-over-shoulder from car
to office / office to car.  Every time I crank out something on the Mac
for co-worker's/boss's consumption, the same "this is great, why can't we
all do this" melody springs to life.  Needless to say, we are rouge
upstarts to the "Information Center" ( the corporate PC people which I
refer to as "The Zenith PC Dealership" ).  You should have seen the look
of fear on their faces when I said we were toying with the idea of
stringing an Appletalk net (actually PhoneNet). :-)
