And it never ceases to amaze me that people actually use computer systems
that lack anything resembling a coherent user interface. I'm assured
someday Unix/(fill in your favorite flavor here, they all suck in this
area) will catch up to the old Atari ST-500 systems in that regard Real
Soon Now.
Now can we leave off the cheap and easy OS putdowns? OS's are like feet --
everyone has two and they all stink.
Have fun,

more at home)
