That's great Harry, but I'm sure the Mac can do more impressive things than just let you create and work with folders! I mean, I can do that on Windows and Linux too! It's too bad it doesn't tell you when you have caps-lock on though!

Just kidding. I hope none of the Apple fan boys or Harry take any exception. I love my iPhone, and I've considered a Mac before. I'd never seriously criticize any operating system or application. I know the engineers work hard on their products, and I have a lot of respect for those smart hard working guys at Apple. I would also not criticize anyone, even implicitly, for choosing to go with one platform or another. It's a very personal choice depending on a lot of factors. It's just great we have different options these days.
