Seems to me the relevanc eof the OS debate is this: how can we continue
using XyWrite, but also take advantage of all the software out there that
ddepends on Windoze or OS/2? I find myself spending huge amounts of time
playing with operating systems because I don't want to give up XyWrite,
but I need to use Windoze or OS/2 software for other functions, like
Faxing and WWWing.

It also seems to me that people ought to stop regarding their software as
a religion.The best OS, the best software, is just a tool--an imperfect
tool, at that. Software fanaticism always makes me very susupcious.
