    Dave Barry also pointed out in his book, Dave Barry in Cyberspace (IIRC), that there was always a parallel universe called "Macintosh" created with the bizarre idea a human could actually use it.

    Barry was quick to point out that manly computer users such as himself didn't want a computer they could use, and so the Macintosh has a pitiful market share, even to this day ; )

      OS X on the other hand, simply rocks.


      It's more Reggae than rock at the moment, but I'm sure that will change as CPUs get faster...
