Scott, thanks a lot for your interest. We, i.e. at least Cody and yours truly,
are mentally handicapped and decided a long time ago that we had to stick with
the lame MacOS and the slow PowerPC because it sucked so much and we did and
do, too. I do not feel very comfortable with writing software for a good OS,
and I'm really afraid of the consequences it would have moving to Wintel - is
there a Mac user who survived this incredible speed jump and multitasking
featureness?
I know you don't believe in the superiority of Windoze (why? Did you refuse to
watch MS ads?), so maybe Andre is gonna write a PC Bernie just for your
very own enjoyment. Andre is currently struggling with his broken right hand -
rumors say he tried to operate a three-button mouse for the first time and
couldn;'t handle it.

I hope, Scott, that Macs will soon become dirt-cheap ($100 price range) because
of their overall suckiness and you will be able to buy one and "suck along with
us". I can only say...it's great to be part of a minority and considered a
digital loser because one doesn't have to defend some braindead technology.
And, lame machines like MacOS thingies suck so much they actually get the job
done.

Hehehe.
