Well, surprisingly, since no one else has posted this here, I thought I might as well. :-) Love to see the underdog rise. I remember when "they" talked me out of buying Microsoft because there were too many operating systems out there- despite their lead, I was told, and correctly so I suppose, a guy just shouldn't be so dang sure who the winner(s) might be- IBM would clean their clock without a doubt! Money in MSFT was too dang risky!
