- "-This is from the person who hates GUIs-" No, I -don't- hate GUIs, I hate
- Mac and Windows and NeXt -WIMP- GUIs. I LIKE windows, multitasking, cursor
- keys, function keys, keypads, and mice have their place -- where and when
- the USER wants to use them, not the Cupertino Style/Thought Police. I like
- to have graphics capability, sound, visualization software, etc. etc. I do
- NOT like Microsoft Excel, in ANY of its incarnations that I've used (Mac,
- DOS, or Windows). I was pointing out that I use my Amiga for productivity
- apps because I do -- and I include desktop publishing there. I;ve USED
- @#*&^@#*&@Y Macs, and I hate the things -- got that, I have many hundreds
- of hours of experience using them, and I prefer to use Amigas. I've also
- used MS-DOS and Windows machines -- again, I PREFER using Amigas. What
- -you- think about computers does NOT necessarily apply to how -I- use the
- blasted things! I prefer to have a lot of user interface flexibility
- --which immediately puts strikes against MS-DOS and Macintosh machines.
- Comprendez-vous?!
