I think the surge in buying Windows 98 is great, primarily because I own a large pile of Comp USA, which I keep accumulating at these lower prices. So keep it up!. But speaking of Comp USA and the free market's tendency to self regulate with no help from the DOJ, it is interesting that since Comp USA became the sole supplier of Apple, some stores are reporting that Apple traffic is up a whole lot. In fact, some stores get 25% of their revenue from the Apple section. Now this may be the concentration factor of being the sole provider of Apple products, but I wonder if there are those out there that are considering Apple as an alternitave to Windows? I like Apples. I would use one at home except that I can't get the stock analysis services I use to work in Apple, only Windows. But be sure that if Apple starts to make a turn around, my next computer will be Apple. That being said, I happen to like Excel and Word more than any other spreadsheet and word processer programs I have used. So I will probably run Excel and Word for Apple on my Apple. ( Say that 5 times fast.)
