Good one Laurent! :-)

Today, I nudged a hardcore PC user towards getting an iMac.

Of course the nudge was judiciously applied while he was having loads of
fun reinstalling Windows NT (Not There) and setting things back up.

Yep, NT is so much fun...NOT!

A coworker was watching him and his frustrations. They were both amazed
when I informed them that PC Cards and USB are not supported in NT.

Since they both know I use Macs at home, they inquired about the Mac and
USB. They damn near fell off their chairs when I finally got them to
realize that Macs have been coming with USB and FW on the motherboard for
quite some time. And that the first iMacs in 1998 came with USB!

Yep, time to trade for an iBook and get on the future train...all aboard!
