I could take offense from that comment but I won't. Being thoughtful and/or polite has nothing to do with top or bottom posting, not in this day and age. As posted by others, there are circumstances that leave no option but top posting, such as using a mobile device such as.... duh! Apple's own iPhone and iPod Touch. And then there's even Apple Mail... set to default to top posting. If you were a thoughtful and polite person you might understand those limitations, set by Apple itself, that make bottom posting to an Apple-related list a bit difficult for some people. It really sucks that a forum for communication is being held hostage by some folks who really could use a bit more fiber in their diet. Those who *strenuously* and *adamantly* object to top posting have already posted a solution --- don't respond to those who top post. Those of us who understand there are limitations that make bottom posting difficult can continue to respond to those queries that we can. <shrug> Steve R --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed Low End Mac's G3-5 List, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
