Re: WOW. You guys are ...



 John left this scat:

    | Not everyone has megabuck burning a hole in their pocket for
    | a shiny new Pentium and the latest version of Doom.

Recent conversation between myself and an old Apple/Atari user who has
sold his soul to Big Blue and thinks he should convert me:

Mush:  I just sent off $200 for a ROM01 GS with System Saver, drives,
two 40 meg HDs, some software including AppleWorks 5, and the real
clincher, a RamFast -- and the price included shipping.

Lance:  You shlong! [I'm quoting, remember.]  For $1300 you could have a
Pentium with Windows NT!

Mush:  Do I *have* $1300?  Can I *get* $1300?  Do I *need* a Pentium?
Do I *want* a Pentium?  No on all counts, Strike Four!

    | Paraphrasing... Steve Wozniak always wanted to build a computer
    | anyone could afford.... and he did.

Truer words are seldom spoken.  :)                      << mushroom >>

yet another annoying post by brian.hammack@rook.wa.com -- deal with it.
