This is even more off topic and maybe even more derogatory. But towards Apple. It was posted on the local L.U.G. mailing list this morning: A good Mac rant (I don't think Apple will use this guy in their switch campaign): http://www-edlab.cs.umass.edu/~ahelblin/misc/mac.html Warning: Requires Flash plug-in, contains vulgarities (coarse language but that phrase may be copyright someone or other) and violence towards what appears to be a Macintosh tower and an iMac. I'm still lmao but I'm no longer on the floor. (-; See everyone? We snipe at someone other than "Poor Microsoft" around here. <g> Charlie - -- Edmonton,AB,Canada User #244963 at http://counter.li.org Mandrakelinux release 10.1 (Beta 1) for i586 kernel 2.6.8-0.rc2.2mdk 12:56:36 up 4 days, 1:50, 1 user, load average: 0.08, 0.18, 0.17 If you can keep your head when all about you are losing theirs, then you clearly don't understand the situation. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFBF8p9ZqvqlrLPr5YRAon3AJ9+uqmQ2tZX93KEuc8aeKoFze2M0gCfeKLc oEDH5Q4QQiVeXOCsWM06YcI= =I6Hx -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
