You just learn from some other post about tax write-off and switch into e-bay pricing -> into 'explanation' of how Universe works. I am talking about a trend in market share and marketing , you are talking about how good stale apples are. I know that well enough. I have a few 7200/90 that still make me money every day. They are excellent at what they are used for. Then you start talking about Trinitron, while I am pointing to the specific quite often poorly calibrated and converged [allegedly]15 inch tubes iMac are equipped with. Those are not all Trinitrons, btw. And in pre-press environment i worked we preferred Hitachis with their .22 raterops amd superscan supreme lines. if you accuse me of MSFT FUD spreading for entertainment, that's fine, I just don't believe such thing exists, mostly in imagination of some who of lack of valid argument have to put a label on somebody else. I don't view MSFT as my enemy - by resisiting something you support it. let it fall on its own burdened by its weight and wars on thousand fronts. This war against MSFT is pathetic, where are you and where is Gates. You even look older than he does. pointing to Apple press publications ( aka agitprop) is a foolish thing, unless acknowledging being brainwashed keeps your fatso self-esteem up, since the very notion of brain is what you need. And not knowing the difference between chip and chipset fully justifies the longish signature - sure sign of an inferiority complex fighter. Have a nice weekend in AEiropa there. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
