DOS Computers manufactured by companies such as IBM, Compaq, Tandy, 
and millions of others are by far the most popular, with about 70 
million machines in use wordwide. Macintosh fans, on the other hand, 
may note that cockroaches are far more numerous than humans, and that 
numbers alone do not denote a higher life form. --New York Times,
