First time I used Vista, I couldn't find menus in most of the
programs. Then I hit the ALT key and the menus appeared--JUST LIKE IN
*DOS*. Now THAT'S really archaic.
You guys are SO used to arguing the rabid PC vs Mac (Hatfield vs.

Too true, Apple has to sue the pants off those making copies of their
hardware, MS has to make it as hard as possible to copy their software...in
the end of course it's just harder on the customer.

I'm not a customer either, I wouldn't pay my cellular carrier for the
privilege of mapping how bad their network is. It's not about politician or
technologist, it's about being a shill or apologist. I'm neither...I'm a
customer, I pay for a service. I'm glad the network I'm on doesn't have
That is not totally true.
I recently saw a chart that showed the standard for all countries in
the world that support Cell phones.
CDMA is used outside the US, but it is not as popular as GSM. CDMA is
also used by Sprint.
When I was in Canada I could use my Verizon phone in a number of

surely doesn't have any meaning to ATT.
So when you are out of range of Tmobile, you pay nothing extra and get 3g

Could this be the first break in the US cellular monopoly and eventually
lead us to a cellular situation as in a lot of the rest of the world,

The problem is, even if you do install it externally, I doubt you have FW or
