Too bad most people who need tools already have the tools, and the young craftsman who will one day need new tools, buy whatever their parents used.

yes, throw a bunch of seeds around and most of them will hit concrete and not flourish.... but a lucky few find the sweet spot and flourish.... it is the way of nature..... only about 5% ever fall in the sweet spot and even fewer become creative... the rest become fodder...

just plug in an area of creativity and find out which seeds get to flourish.....

thats like saying that kids will get the same haircuts or listen to the same music as their parents... a very poor interpretation as to how kids choose their tools to express themselves...

you can tell when something is well done, by it's withstanding the test of time.....

and the first mac showed what craftsmanship is.... the imac showed it again.... and the new imac confirms it.....

all of which have already, or soon will be included in Museums of american culture...... the Wintel PC's and the Kmart specials just end up as landfill.....

do yourself a favor and go to a recycling plant, and see if you can find a Mac among the thrown out PC hardware.....

craftsmenship endures.... wintel PC's prove the opposite every day....
