Bill,

Forgot to add: The fact that Macs are not ubiquitous at computer retailer stores could be explained by the fact that most Mac users buy from Mailorder houses. I do, and particularly mailorder houses out of California, which has an 8.25% sales tax. $4000 computer X 8.25% adds $330 bucks to the price and gives $330 to the leeches state gov't. (Don't mean all state workers. But there is plenty of corruption here.)

Hey, one feature in the new Netscape Browser worth its weight in silicon: allows you to automatically refuse cookies. But the geeky geeks hid the cashe clear button deep in the prefs. menu. Nerds.
