Well, I use Pegasus Mail and they still occasionally throw something 
strange (usually in line spacing). I'm going to keep using Pegasus, 
as long as they keep adding features like the lastest - a CLIENT side 
Baesian filter), plus an internal HTML rendering engine which doesn't 
suffer the security issues Microsoft's renderer does.

Yea. And for that they're demanding a much higher base spec, and 
disabling the desktop in games. I'd rather have a "classic" desktop.

That's what I'd expect for high settings in a modern GAME. Not an OS.

And don't get me started on DX10. I'm not interested in the gimmicks 
they're throwing out, I want an upgrade to Windows 2000.
