Malcolm, You simply can't convince me that the gorilla "theory" is due for the junk heap. It's good to hear your high tech testimonial. I hope to follow in your footsteps. My testimonial comes from a different perspective. When I started working toward a bachelors degree in '88 the chemistry department at the university I attended replaced all the Macs in a matter of months. By the time I graduated in '92 virtually all the Macs were replaced throughout the entire university. Then I went to grad school. Same process repeated itself and by the time I left in '95 there wasn't a Mac in the chem department. Then I got a job at the best of the pharmaceutical companies (Merck:-) and began to hear rumors that other big pharma were dumping their Macs. Sure enough. It happened. Then we were told all our Macs would be replaced. A year later they were all gone. See. I was Gorilla Gamed in real life and didn't even know it. Geoffe Moore showed me the light! Hallelujah! :-) P@ihavebeenbaptizedintheriverofggaming.com
