Even with our limited understanding of genes, genetics, Deoxyribonucleic Acid and all that stuff, we were not surprised to find the Mad Mick╒s column for the month of March tending toward an Irish theme. After all, his surname is McCormick. We were, however, a bit taken aback at who this modern day Patrick would like to run out of the Emerald Isle of Macintoshdom. Rather than ruminating on Father Mack╒s suggestions that everyone from Apple itself to the evil empire of Microsoft be considered likely candidates for a swim across the channel we should count ourselves lucky that he didn╒t lump team Nautilus in with the nefarious and the miscreant.
Our green-ish author has been a longtime hell-raiser on the Macintosh front ever since he first hooked up with a Macintosh User Group back in what he considers the halcyon days of 1984. The more time he spends around the computer industry the more things he finds to complain about╔the prerogative of a curmudgeon (or so it seems). If you would like to let the curmudgeon-in-residence know what you think of him and of his opinions on matters Macintosh and sundry, please feel free to contact him directly or upload your comments via the Nautilus Link and we╒ll forward them to him in an asbestos envelope.
