Heh...you DO realize that the pro-Mac people are due to show up any second, right? Beware!

For the most part, I don't like 'em either. They don't play nice on a mixed network, for one. And the Mac labs on campus take a LOT more of our time to maintain.

Anyone who likes a system that has made such marvelously intuitive design choices - like dragging the floppy icon to the trash can to eject it - or eliminating the floppy drive entirely before an adequate replacement came along - or the marvelous single-button mouse - can take a little heat.

Actually... I'm sure you know, but OS X was a Godsend, especially running on mixed networks. We could *finally* get the he!! rid of fargin' Appletalk. Finally it was a true IP-only client.

Appletalk was only created to frustrate network engineers. I'm convinced on this.
