Bill; I have seen many references to crashes etc in Wintels, and I do not see them very often. Perhaps once a month do I crash. I use win95, the 32 bit FAT version. I agree Apples are easier to learn to use by non techies, but I am happy on both Apples and Wintels. Network automation is better on Apple also, as every Apple is a network Apple. I have often wondered why Gates did not impose a similar standard on Wintels. The part count would be minimal. I suspect networks evolved into disparate ways while DOS held sway and when Windows came along he had to adapt to a dozen network possibilities, and just left it open for any one to be set up. So to place head in sand with sure knowledge of superiority is not a viable option. All must urge Apple to get better and cheaper, and to run faster than Wintel. We have all seen what failing to do that can do. I hope Jobs can see it as well. He has done some goo and some bad things in my view. History will tell if Jobs of me was correct about clones. Bill
