All Apples were and are expensive.  They just can't seem to figure out
where the money is.

OS10 and XP are both cool.  My problem with XP are the MS antics
too.  I would love to upgrade but I am taking a look and see approach.
For me, Windows 95 and Windows NT4 were the last "clean" MS
OSes.  After that, they started the whole "web integration" nonsense
to kill the competition like Netscape.
