Some of us
are quite turned off by the [Mac] interface, the pull down menus, the
icons, >and
*especially* the dependence on the mouse, features which initially attract
the novice, but stand in the way of productivity for the power user. And
these features now infect the DOS world as well, for the disease has taken
over the Windows environment nearly totally. Oh, one *can* still do
Windows 95 without the mouse most of the time, using keyboard equivalents
only,
but there's still too much mucking around in what I consider a
user-hostile environment of both Mac and Windows platforms.
So, I'm not a religious advocate of either platform; I hate them both, and
whenever possible I stick to plain DOS. My entire Web page and all of my
HTML documents on it were created with a text editor. I've gotten to like
UNIX more and more as I get into it.
Windows 95 works so much like a
Mac that there seems to be no compelling reason to by Mac.
