Everyone, I think what Chris S. wrote, "Life is truly too short to run 
Windoze" is great and says it all period.  I think this quote should be 
on bumper stickers, on QSL cards and maybe even on email signatures.  
It reminds me that I once got a QSL card from a ham in Germany.  On the 
front of his QSL card was "Life is too short for QRP".  Being a 100 
watt ham and someone occasionally running low power to QRP phone/cw I 
don't agree with that.

Chris, I feel that you have hit the nail on the head.   Maybe if the 
slogan gets enough exposure by email, maybe old Steve J. would put it 
on banners next January during Apple's San Francisco convention.  
Imagine a long banner with LARGE, BOLD type- Life is Truly Too Short To 
Run Windoze. That would be awesome.  Although I guess Steve would have 
some explaining to do to the Microsoft for Mac division.  Furthermore, 
they would be even more ticked off by the spelling of their OS.

out and I changed my browser and email apps.
