The message wasn't aimed at you--far from it--although I can see now how it
seemed so. I find that most Mac users have a big chip on their shoulders
about Gates stealing their stuff. I couldn't say that, or I'd really bring
down the wrath of all Mac fanatics on my head. I agree with everything
you've said. In addition, I'd be pretty ungrateful if I aimed that post at
you after all the help you've given me and continue to give me. I consider
you a friend, and I'm sorry I didn't think out that message more
carefully. I'd defend my friends even if they were wrong, and you
aren't. BTW, I didn't anticipate the rabid nature of this
controversy. I'd have kept the original query OL if I had. Sorry about
the post.

Sorry about that.
