BTW, my early "troll" comment was because your comment in #9 was clearly baiting Swordmaker. "Trolling" is different from arguing, in that it seeks primarily to piss off others, rather than engage in conversation. We've been having a fine conversation since then...

Excellent definition of troll dayglored. I've  been following the discussion, and enjoying it. I must say that y'all aren't playing this 'internet discussion' thing quite right. For example, I've yet to see the word "nazi" in posts from either of you. Someone's slipping around here.

I'm a unix/linux guy, but I still drop in the apple and windows threads because some of the windows supporters are every bit as annoying as the mac heads and unix nerds.

Not slipping, it's intentional. ;-)

We're trying to avoid invoking Godwin's Law, and the surest way to do that is to let the discussion degenerate into reductio ad Hitlerum.
