It’s not Ed, but on this list we have some Windoze users, and the hundreds of

Those of us who spend a lot of time waving our flag it does me good to continue 
the promotion of our products.  Who better to do this than those that use Apple

It’s all about spreading the word…I know I wax old to some, but like Paul 
Revere I shout "the Mac’s are coming" every chance I can.
