I am not touchy, I just don't like the facts screwed. I run more windows
and unix machines than I care to count and less macs than I'd like but the
facts are the facts.
If even a site like slashdot.org, which is made by linuxhead for
linuxheads, understand the place, use and advantages of the macintosh (and
I mean this in their general approach to Mac and Apple, when there is one)
then maybe it is not just that I am touchy, but that I like to let the
facts subsist on their own. They are sensible enough without the trampling
around.
Because that't what they are, right? facts... Facts don't need a helping
hand to be truer, they just need people not muddling them up..:)
