Re: rant A nice diatribe. I agree that Macs are overrated. I agree that Microsoft's products are ... eventually ... superior. (After they rip off all the innovative features from competitors.) I agree Word is a nice word processor (although it COULD be MUCH better--without competitors innovating new features, it's now stagnant, just like Excel.) I agree Outlook Express is a decent piece of work, with a nice price. (Although it crashes sporadically when following embedded hyperlinks.) However, I'll take a different turn on the browser issue. Personally I think BOTH browsers are utter dogs**t. If Navigator 4 is the best Nutscrape could come up with after years and years ... let them eat hot LEAD. And following my argument above, IE can't get better if Nutscrape or other browser builders don't come up with cool features for MS to rip off. <g> On second thought, maybe NS intentionally stopped browser innovation since they figured MS was just going to steal it anyway.
