Well, this is very nice of Apple, but I wonder how Mac support people
are going to handle it when 12 teachers approach them with their shiny
new software and want it installed on their 233-mhz iMacs? And the
school is entirely OS9/MacManager which doesn't support OSX.  This
almost sounds like a Microsoft ploy to force all-around upgrades (except
MS wouldn't give anything away).

Bryan, I really like OSX.  When can you get me a copy for my PC?  :-)

Thanks, Bryan.  That's all we need to add to schools' security
nightmares: kid lighting fires.

And, by the way, it's my understanding that Yeats did NOT use a Mac for
writing poetry.  In fact, I think the computer in general was what he
had in mind when he talked of a "rough beast slouching toward Bethlehem
to be born."

OK.  I actually have something to do beside penning annoying responses
to this list.  I'm signing off for the day.
