- Well, Min, maybe I was the one person you were counting, but I'll step
- in here anyway. I like OS/2 because it's pretty neat and works well for
- some people. I like Windows, too, because it's pretty neat and works
- well for me. No, it can't do everything OS/2 can do. (BTW, I also like
- Windows NT because it *should* be able to do everything OS/2 can do.)
-
- So, just because *you* hate Windows (and Microsoft, and everything they
- make) doesn't mean that everybody else does. (And I'm not speaking of
- Microsoft employees, either.)
-
- - Mike, who doesn't work for Microsoft and can count pretty well :)
