Gentlemen Gentlemen Gentlemen,

        My intent wasn't to start an argument, and if you'll read my original 
post closely, you'll realize I was only speaking about the Macs of that time 
period.. NOT ALL MACS.  I was simply trying to say that if Apple had kept the 
"invite the user inside" approach after the Apple II, they'd probably be a lot 
better off today.  Yes, they have it now, but they didn't have it THEN, and 
that's why a lot of II users (myself included) went the PC route.  THAT was my 
point.
