mirek03 > '...I think you must be joking that 'artists' prefer macs because they are prettier...' Yeah, I was joking there. But some people do judge computers according to looks, an example being a friend of mine who is a bit fanatical when it comes to the appearence of the case... mirek03 > 'Macs are much more user friendly' I always hear that, but in my case, Mac OS is more difficult to use than anything I have ever used (DOS, Windows, SUSE Linux, Lindows). But on stability and reliability and speed, it beats Windows a hundred times. mirek03 > '...who would trust a guy with a face like Bil Gates??' lol!! I agree. All the 'dial home' things in Vista and the checking for illegal copies.... By the way, have you seen his mugshots on Wikipedia from the 70s?
