Personally I'd rather eat dirt than fly with a guy that does not have enough sense to buy a better designed and built piece of hardware that lets him run his OS of choice plus every other OS one under the sun (concurrently) for the same price or less.

And yes I've seen all your posts and responses on the computer threads. I have a good idea of your skillset. Newsflash for you. Your skillset is average, somewhere slightly North of the average Best Buy sales rep. My advice, stick to flying planes.
First off, you could not afford to fly with me, so stop dreaming. Am flying the owner of a NFL football team right now, and for some silly reason do not believe that you are worth $3 billion just yet.

Both computers were almost brand new, one of them in London at the Apple showroom, and the second one was in the Air France First Class lounge at the Paris airport, and new within a month. That good enough for you bucko? How new is your computer?

I know your skillset and suggest that you shut your mouth about other people when you do not know their history. I trained on a IBM 360 when you were not even a glint in your daddy's eye (1973) and have worked with computers since that time.

You might stick to your business and stop telling people off on any forum when you do not know them. I did not say a word about you in my post yet now you want to go after me instead. Words like this in my part of the country and you would be "dancing," and I would be leading.

Grow up and enjoy your Apple...
