And the first step to reach that goal is to not use powerpoint, since it actively tries to do everything to make your presentations as ugly and uninformative as possible. -- Sandman[.net]

Am I also a hypocryte because my daughter does *not* use any apple stuff, and my wife doesn't as well? Because they are served better by other OS? My daughter uses windows, my wife runs linux, just as I do And what has that got to do with the fact that apple computers would serve *my* needs worst of all, even worse than windows? You guys seem incapable of making rational decisions. You simply lack the smarts to take a look at what is needed and what type of gear would perform best in light of these demands. But then, you cult leader simply is served best by having devout fanboiz who would buy used toilet paper if it brandishes the apple logo prominently enough -- If you had any brains, you'd be dangerous. |
