Do I detect a tad of sarcasm? :-)

If so, I can see how many people would agree with you. But honestly, my 
computing needs are relatively simple- word processing, student grade 
entry in a grade book program, logging my miles running and cycling, 
Quicken for banking and investments, web browsing, sending email with a 
cable modem connection, storing photos from digital camera, and other 
simple stuff like that. My iMac with OS 9.2.2 does all those things so 
smoothy that I have a hard time visualizing how OS X could do them 
better. Would it open the applications faster, scroll faster, etc? I 
suppose so, but those things happen fast enough for me now without going 
though the pain of dealing with a new system.

I'm not even sure what that means, but it does sound like something new 
I'd have to deal with.

Its not so much ignoring them as losing them in the clutter. It seems 
like there have been other reports about OS X that were not quite so 
positive. And I guess the bottom line relates to my comment about seeing 
little reason to upgrade in the first place. I suppose that when I 
finally see some good reason to upgrade to OS X, then I'll start reading 
the posts about using Emailer with it more carefully. Until then, its 
hard to focus on them when they don't directly concern me. Hopefully, I 
will have saved some that will ease the transition for me, but of course 
Apple may have moved on to OX 11 by then so that I'll still be behind the 
curve.

Saying that being pro-war is "supporting our troops" is like saying that 
arson is supporting our firefighters.
