I am posting to this group (as it is the only one I can about) but I would guess that comp.sys.mac, comp.sys.ibm have the same problems, namely the lengthy tirades over which computer is better, the Wanger VII3 with optional Swiss Army Knife attachment or the Kiwi 28 Supremo with Iggydos and 14 billion shades of grey. Rather than saying "F*ck you, who cares?" may I make a suggestion? Create a new group, comp.sys.comparisons where everyone can post their reasons why the Lardass computer is the best ever and anyone who doesn't by it should take time off to evolve a brain (note to creationists, direct flames to alt.origins :-) ). This way people who want to read it (are looking to buy a computer for example), could read reams of info on the various options; those of us who know the faults of our machines but are foolish enough to be happy with them anyway can get some peace. If anyone out there thinks this idea has merit we could ask the other comp.sys.<your computer here> groups what they think. Just my humble (ha!) opinion. Alan Morgan morgan@cory.berkeley.edu By the way, the AMIGA is the best, my 500 can beat a 68050 NeXT, Macintosh sucks, IBM sucks, hahahahahahahahahahahammph gurgle. (Tirade canceled by popular demand).

When did he start writing operating systems? I thought all his going out at night was typical "cat on the prowl" stuff. And while he only comes in two shade of grey, black and white, he can catch more mice than any computer I know of. >Alan Morgan -- Dave Haynie Commodore-Amiga (Amiga 3000) "The Crew That Never Rests" {uunet|pyramid|rutgers}!cbmvax!daveh PLINK: hazy BIX: hazy "I can't drive 55" -Sammy Hagar

Sooooo, Dave... Where should we expect Iggy's name or pawprint to show up? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Look for things to make them go!
