    Sigh, you are right.
    On the one hand, as a Linux geek from way back,
    I have a small sense of pride in my lack of MS knowledge.
    But I use MS; XP is a great desktop, Outlook is a great
    mail client (I also use a Linux desktop and kmail is a great
    mail client).

    So, on the other hand, I know that there are a lot of
    *nix people out there who endlessly bash MS without
    any knowledge of that which they curse. I don't want to
    be one of those.

    When the ignorant ask honest questions, don't
    get abusive, just answer them... Please?
