Bummer, indeed.

I wonder what the advantages of sticking with the mac might be, if  
this trend is going to continue.

Don't get me wrong: I am a die-hard Macintosh fan, and indeed in the  
past wrote - under the *nom de plume* of "Laser Quasar Absolutely" -  
a series of articles regarding the Future of the Mac at  
"MacReviewZone" (they are all archived at <http://tinyurl.com/ 
9zl9s>.) But if the Mac doesn't let me do what people need it to do,  
then it perforce *will* lose to Windows, won't it.


Oh well. Cheers, anyway.
