Have you ever thought that you might be turning away potential mac converts with this kind of reaction? I have an icebook, its my first mac, yes, but I have never had any of the horror stories that I read here. I got my icebook, just because it was $250 bucks, maxed out and I needed another laptop, so why not? Couldn't you have just said something like, "I disagree," and then went on to calmly explain your reasoning? Something to the tune of, I prefer macs because of this positive thing. Instead of such agressive language. I don't recall saying anythings about macs that were not readily observable. My goodness Mac vets, there has to be something about this machine to make you act this way ;). I have to find out what it is. =) On Wed, 05 Nov 2003 09:16:19 +0100 Zoki <zoki.news at linuxix.net> wrote: > Le 05/11/2003 07:43, « Chad Coppedge » <chadc1 at mac.com> a écrit : > > > I learned to spell full words and find writing in acronyms a little > > lazy.
