I use a Mac, not because I like Macs but because it is a better alternative, for me, than Linux. I have extremely good reasons for my point of view, which are not appropriate to go into here. cheers, Frank On 14 Feb, 2010, at 10:07, Geoff Hopkinson wrote: > Oh well Frank you are one of the good guys and I lsten to whatever you have > to say.
