Edward, I agree with you about the compatibility issue but not on the Mac vs Win95... Mac achieved PnP by using expensive propriety components in early years until recent. Also prior System 8 Mac used cooperative multitasking. About reliability, I can tell you that Mac's magic bomb (system crashed) showed up as frequent as Windows 3.1X's UAE when I took computer science few years ago. Fortunately, the only applicaiton required Mac is "Logicwork". Even our Unix system network down occasionally. You may be right that MS stole the WIMP and PnP from Mac, but the same can also apply to Apple for stole GUI from Xerox Star. BTW, I also agree with you that IOM has great marketing, but recently it is not very productive... aC
