Coupers,
As most of us realize, there is much to say for flying a comfortable old
airplane -- even if the performance is not the same as the latest
models. The fact that we fly low, slow and with a minimum gross weight
fits our style -- and we love it.
Perhaps the same is true of computers? I was a dos believer and a long
holdout against Windows. Seven or eight computer upgrades later, I've
got very stable Windows systems on four different computers that provide
all the IT resources that I can need or use. I've got sisters who use
Macs (one used to work for Apple) and a son-in-law that is retired from
Microsoft. We all manage to email back and forth and the fact that we
use different systems never comes up - it is utterly transparent. Both
systems work well provided you understand and conform to the rules of
your system.
All of us should be happy that we have computers and be well satisfied
that they can do all that they do. Just as we are satisfied with Coupes
and don't really care that someone gets there faster or with a bus load
of people.
Now, can we please return to Ercoupes and flying?

One has to consider some hideous marketing gaffs Apple committed along
the years (including deliberate or inadvertent developmental gifts to
Billy G., just like Xerox's original gift of the Graphical User
Interface to Apple way back when). (re: Ed's comment)
The new Macs will do Windows as well so that people can have a Mac and
its comfortable (and secure) operating environment but still have the
capability to run the myriad of niche software that only works on
Windows. (re: John's comment)
