Yeah, right. Mac users never use Microsoft Word for Macintosh,

:-) ....perhaps Ed never does that, but I know Mac users who use
Microsoft software sometimes. Thus the statement "Mac users never
use Microsoft long list of software" is false....

Microsoft PowerPoint, Microsoft Project, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft
Internet Explorer, Microsoft Virtual PC, Microsoft Entourage, MSN,
MSN Messenger, Microsoft Windows Media Player, Microsoft,
Microsoft, Microsoft. And Mac users certainly never use Microsoft
hardware like Microsoft keyboards and Microsoft mice.

Innocent--I don't use any Microsoft hardware or software. Not even IE.

...and you never ever visit any web site on a server running Windows
and Microsoft IIS? If you visit such a site, you're using Microsoft
software, even if it's not running on your computer.... g


Good Point, Paul -- Certainly I'm a victim of Microsoft vulnerability
as is anyone connected to the internet. May all sys admin folks around
the world remain vigilant and patch fast and often!


Getting yourself religiously free from Microsoft (or any other brand)
is getting increasingly difficult in a world which is getting more and
more interconnected: we just don't KNOW what we're actually using.....
