Nope, never owned those platforms.

Each buying decision was independent.  I always either did the upgrade (cheaper
than buying new) or waited for a great sale price to came along.  But in the end
I *did* end up buying every PC & Mac version so far, and I definitely intend to
upgrade to CM9000.

I hope your company can find me, because I've moved since the last rev!
