My point was that getting hung up on the OS is often pointess, it's the application that matters. In the case of the AS400, I never interact with the OS, it could run CPM for all I care. Same for Windows versions really, it often doesn't matter. I do a lot of MS Office work, so in theory I should care that Macs do things a little differently than Windows (eg dates in Excel), but reality it's never come up. 99.9% of this list cares about their OS, but that figure doesn't extend out into the real world... Besides, how long before we all run our apps off Google? Tony -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
