couple of years now. The Kool-Aid stuff, etc. is insulting and unnecessary.

That's a pretty big claim!

Since LaMont is right, maybe you guys should file a suit against Apple, IBM
and Jeff GoldBlum; ) Apple has so many frivolous law suits against them
right now, maybe they would settle quick, or maybe their attorneys would
squash you like a bug. And of course, I'm just kidding with you.

Power is no longer an issue or debate, thank god! Now it's all a matter
of OS, applications, diversity, capabilities, and your needs. Good luck with
your system purchase.
