I guess I'm one of those "trolls" that loves hanging out on these threads watching y'all go at it.

I'm a Microsoft user. Using MSFTs products make me money. I couldn't care less about the techno-whiz-bang thingies that make it work. All I need to know that if it doesn't work, I can call up any one of a dozen people in my phone book and have somebody here in an hour who can fix it. (I can't say that with Linux or Macintosh...I live in a fairly rural area.)

Also, during the tech boom, I made some money with MSFT stock. Not much... but I feel a loyalty to who pays me.

That being said, I don't subscribe to too many conspiracy theories. GE's ideas seem a little too outside of the box for my tastes. I have problems with Open Source as a business model -- I'm classically trained in business theories and administration, I don't see how open source systems make their money... and if I can't figure that out, I'm naturally a little leary of 'em.

I use FireFox -- I had to switch because IE crashed hard on me... I finally got IE working right, thanks to Bush2000, but I'm used to FireFox now, and I like it... but for the life of me I couldn't tell you how they make money...and that scares me.

But y'all are a good source of infotainment. For awhile I thought a few of you actually scripted this out before hand...but obviously y'all fight with each other so often that you know what the other person's going to say as you're writing your replies.

Anyway... keep it up.

Mike, fyi.

BTW, my new DSL ISP doesn't support Firefox. I am bummed about that.
