To put things in perspective, IIRC Grant is a Mac lover. Or was at least
a few years ago. Unless I'm confusing him with another Grant.
Some people are just anti-Windows because of the technology. Who can
blame them if, like me, they switched to *nix because of Win98.
I am anti-Windows because of the license. I've been sorely tempted by
Mac OS X, but so far remembering the many times I've been burned by
proprietary software has been a sufficient antidote. Perhaps other have
a higher tolerance for pain, or a less consuming stubborn streak.
