Step aside, dilettante, and let the real technologists go to work. I work for a company a hell of a lot bigger than the one you work for and have walked over the bodies of computerists of your ilk plenty of times on my way to the top of the heap. That is all, Dilbert

Where did you get the idea that anybody wants to hear you spew more insults? You are big on insults but deficient on supporting evidence for your silly points (and you lie with reckless abandon - hint: you know nothing about me so stop pretending like you do).

I never said what company I work for nor have I said how big it is – why do you make such a fool out of yourself is your silly attempts to insult me just because I don’t agree with your fanatic opinion of the Mac?

I said you're dismissed, Dilbert.

Although I can't claim to be a computer programmer, I do develop solutions for business functions. Back in the early 90's I was doing stuff that no PC could do, and had to do it at home working into the early morning hours because I had a Mac at home and only PC's at work.

Your claim that PC's left Mac's in the dust in the early 90's is only true in the marketing sense. Functionality and performance on PC's didn't happen for the average business user until the release of Windows 95.

Until that point, I was telling my clients that they had to go with Macs to do the kind of things I was doing. After Win 95 was released, I told them they could do it on their Windows computers, but not as easily. How's that for objectivity? A true Mac missionary told clients to stay with Windows and PC's.

Now most of my clients are Windows users, so I know both platforms. I have 4 Macs and one Windows laptop. Why do I like the Mac? It allows me to work more efficiently without responding to constant messages asking if I really want to do that. Heck yeah, I clicked on it, and I really want to do it.

Mac users can trouble shoot their systems with ease because it is easy! Although I do have few Mac clients, my only callers for tech support are Windows users, and it is usually about Windows issues and has nothing to do with my solution. Mac users never have to call. They just do it.

That is perhaps the best feature of Macs. They don't take you down, cause you to have to call in the IT gurus several times a day to stop the blue screen of death, and intimidate the hell out of you.

Why are you so focused on putting Mac users and Macs down? Most of the posts on this thread are from you. Sheesh... get a life, or get a Mac. There is help for you.
