Tonight I was reminded of how much more intelligent and well designed a 
Mac is, and how Apple doesn't make many stupid mistakes.  I guess 
that's a stretch, but from what I saw tonight, as I ventured to the 
Dark Side,  it's not far off.  After I installed Microsoft Works on my 
PC, it wanted me to register it.  On the form, after the usual name, 
address, what system used, questions, there was -  'Are there children 
present in your household?'.    And there were two options... 'Yes', 
and 'No plans to purchase'.  Now that was very confusing.  Does a no 
mean," no children currently, but I plan to purchase one in the 
future"?  Or does a no mean, "Yes, I have children, but will not 
purchase any more."?  Maybe Microsoft is doing market research on... , 
no, surely not.
