The reason people switch to macs is because theycannothandle simple tasks. Isnt the main thing said by new mac users is 'it just works' meaning 'I couldnt figure out windows' . The main users of macs are liberal arts students and hippies .. and we all know the technical level of these people.You apparently haven't been around Macs recently. *Many* technical people, *especially* Unix and security admins, have started using Macs because they provide all the functionality of Unix with a beautiful GUI on top. Besides, I'll put the technical prowess of a liberal arts major up against the technical prowess of a computer science major *any* day, and spot them two full months to study. CS majors can code like monkeys, but they don't have a clue how a computer works. :-) -- Paul Schmehl (pauls () utdallas edu) Senior Information Security Analyst The University of Texas at Dallas http://www.utdallas.edu/ir/security/ _______________________________________________ Full-Disclosure - We believe in it.
