I agree with you completely, Bruce. And I think the reason for this is 
that they're trying for mass-appeal. They need new recruits and there 
are plenty in the windoze world. So they figure they could get them by 
tailoring stuff for them, and in the end they're turning a unix 
system...the first perhaps...into a hog. Simple but elegant, with few 
exceptions, is partly responsible for Apple's success. If Linux can do 
that, heck! they could, with all this messy intel switch, beat even Apple.
