Blessings on you and yours for being so patient
with those who think they are buying
a new toaster at best buy.

I have installed, repaired, configured and used
computers and networks for almost fifty years.

I've worked on the very largest to the very smallest.

I've worked on hardware, software and firmware

Spent the 80s in Bell Labs as an MTS with
a world class computer sandbox.

My degree is in Cognitive Sciences
studying man/machine interface.

I think OS X is the slickest GUI I have ever used
and OS X is built on BSD, designed for DARPA
for use on the internet and subject to hostile attack.

There are trolls and snarky folks who will
always argue to prove their own existence.

OBTW if anyone with VMware Fusion is interested
they can download windows 7 as a Virtual Appliance.

Those of us who know computers, support all you do.

So you would be familiar with the works of people like Don Norman, Brenda Laurel, Lillian Schwartz, Aaron Marcus, Bruce Tognazzini, Alan Kay, Ted Nelson, etc.?

Thanks, it's good to be appreciated.
