RE: XyWrite Honored

["Tom Robertson" t1r@xxxxxxxx]

Hey folks, if it had not been for Billy Gates snookering IBM we
would be stuck with chicklet keyboards and bastard great grand
sons of DisplayWrite. Even when IBM did get hold of a good (I
think great) program like XyWrite which they called "Signature"
they did not have a clue as to what people did with it.

So Gates got run away with by the inertia of it all. What a
sandbox he left us with, and its getting bigger all the time. As
for better, well that's up to us users that have some idea of
what you do with this technology when you want to take ideas and
put them into something other than the wet whatevers of our
brains.

What a pleasure it would be to say good riddance to Bill Gates
once and for
all.

Last I heard Gates had substantial voting share of stock in
Apple. To get rid of Gates, you're going to have to go Linux.
