Calm down. There are users who want to get to something fast and don't care for spending a long time learning it. When I want to use a program I don't really know, I'd much rather do it on a Mac. Then there is stuff I use often, and I want to shave as much time off the user input overhead as possible. That's why I still use my MS Word 5.0 for DOS loaded with macros, even though some find this program convoluted compared to Mac. That may be, but I do everything 5 to 6 times faster. Case closed. I want both Mac (or GUI's) when appropriate and command line style (like DOS) when appropriate. I don't even want to see a "winnner", just like I don't want one of my three hammers to become a winner, so that I will have to use it for every kind of job. They're just tools, for Pete's sake, not your lovers! Don't get so emotionally attached :) Tony
