Nonsense Tom. You're reading far, far, far more into this than was there. You also, unfortunately, took my comment entirely out of context.
The 'derisive' comment was intimating what someone on the list might say. I wasn't necessarily stating my opinion, but trying to give others an opportunity to chime in or have a few good laughs at both of us. :-) I also didn't realize Mac owners would be emotionally attached to their computers. In my job, I use both Macs and PCs (yeah, I know... I've never 'fessed up that I'm a Mac person too). But I don't feel any more emotional attachment to the Macs that I use than I do to my PC. I see them both as work tools. As I did with my typewriter back in the day when I used that. I'm just sayin' this stuff 'cause I love your contributions Tommy! :-) Larry :-D -----Original Message----- From: Computer Guys Discussion List [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Tom Piwowar Sent: Wednesday, July 09, 2008 4:46 PM To: COMPUTERGUYS-L@LISTSERV.AOL.COM Subject: Re: [CGUYS] Where's my computer? >"I thought Tom's recent post was even more derisive than normal.

My writing that Mac owners are more emotionally attached to their computers and therefore less likely to be careless with them was hardly inflammatory, unless one were already inclined to be inflamed. My suggestion that Mac owners are more ardent seems to have touched a nerve. ************************************************************************ * ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** ************************************************************************ * ************************************************************************* ** List info, subscription management, list rules, archives, privacy ** ** policy, calmness, a member map, and more at http://www.cguys.org/ ** *************************************************************************
