Not a bit. From what I've heard (probably wrong) AppleScript is at least a little like Python - which is pretty damn good. I'm sure it's fine, tho' - perhaps even great. Personally I love WSH simply because I use JavaScript everywhere now: Flash, AJAX, WinRunner, etc. Being able to use it to knock off system tasks as well is icing on the cake. > To be blunt, I think Apple is /better than ever/.

But then again so is everybody else. ;^) The whole "they're not MS" aspect just completely turns me off however. I like what MS has been doing lately quite a bit.
