I do believe that Windows was a rip off of the Mac OS way back when then 386 first made it's appearance on the scene. I had an 8086 with Tandy's Deskmate software, when my buddy was using an Apple Macintosh (the original). The Mac is to PC's as Beta was to VHS. A much better technology, just poorly marketed.
For the record I am a PC user through and through.

If the Mac owner (forget his name right now) was as good a marketer as Bill Gates, PC's would be GONE by now! [img]tongue.gif[/img] [/QUOTE]No debate here. I agree completely, but it didn't happen that way. Marketing is the key to any products survival. My buddy was playing games on his Mac, that blew the PC away during that time. My high school computer tech class was strictly Macs and before that in Jr High, the Apple IIc and IIe was king. Unfortunately Apple wanted proprietary control over their technology and subsequently screwed themselves.
