Amber,
You must have stumped him with your reply. Either that, or his "pee-
cee" was experiencing the "BSOD" syndrome.
Way off topic, but still has me laughing...about a month ago I went
through the McDonald's drive through for breakfast. It had one of
those nice, new video screens that display your order. After about a
minute, I was asked for my order. I gave it, and it was repeated back
to me. Silence. Then I was given the total. I waited before
proceeding to the window because throughout the entire ordeal, about
3 minutes; the nice, new screen had an image of Windows Scan Disk
running (well, sort of) that was stuck at 87%.
I only wish I had the digital camera with me!

So, in the gasoline analogy, the Mac would be a "premium
computer", or a "plus" at the very least. I'm happy with that,
thank you very much!

Hi Shawn,
LOL - While this is a terrific analogy and very favorable towards
the Mac, I can assure you that this individual was intent on
trying to prove that Macs were quite inferior to PC's. To follow
your Gasoline analogy, he was referring to Mac's more as dirty
diesel and PC's as Gold/Premium.
He seemed to feel that their PC programmers were completely
incapable of making eBay work on Safari and suggested I upgrade to
Explorer 6.0. I immediately informed him that changing to Explorer
in any shape or form would be a DOWNGRADE and that as I understood,
Microsoft stopped working on Explorer for Mac after version 5.2
because of the popularity (and superiority) of Safari. There was a
fairly long silence after this....then he said he was glad that he
could be of assistance today and asked if there were any other
questions. hmmmmm
