Dvorak's been saying this since the abacus. I guess that's why Apple is 
on the "buy" list of all the major financial firms.

By the way, it's "Mac" -- upper and lower case. MAC (all uppercase) 
means "Media Access Control" and refers to the low-level hardware 
address of every computer capable of connecting to a network. Yup, 
that's right folks -- your Pee Cee has a MAC in it! :-)

I'd think a mailing list of people devoted to a superior, but obsolete, 
camera would have a broader point of view than to believe the periodic 
"sky is falling" stories about Apple. If there wasn't room for a 
Macintosh niche market, there'd be no Porsche or Jaguar, and there sure 
wouldn't have been an OM camera line.
