Interesting. Perhaps there is hope after all. I went to the computer store
tonight and looked at Mac OS X and I think I like it better than Windows, just
from the looks anyway. I didn't get to play with it too long, so this isn't a
strong opinion. I did recall feeling a bit let down upon arriving home and
looking at windows 2000 though. It looked plain.

You know how newer cars are sleek and aerodynamic, and old cars are generally
very "square"? I felt like Mac OS X was sleek and aerodynamic and like windows
was "square".
