George W. Bush
acknowledged that the war on terror has been "misnamed"; he
said that it ought to be called "the struggle against
ideological extremists who do not believe in free societies
who happen to use terror as a weapon to try to shake the
conscience of the free world."
[From Harper's Weekly]

Why do people use PC's?. Tom Clifton: This morning I had a long conversation with a paranoid, computer-savy PC user. His email has been down since he upgraded Explorer on his primary PC. He said that he is still using win98, because most viruses target win2000 and beyond. And while he knows that win2000+ is a more stable operating system, it has too vulnerable to attack from the internet. I tell him get a Mac. He tells me they cost too much...

The guy ends up spending 800$ more to secure a PC because "Macs are too expensive". Surprise! You can get en eMac for 800$!
Tipical stupidity. Anything to justify a story, but fact checking is way too much work. The letter Forrest Gump receives is dated 1978, which means he was a pre-IPO investor on Apple. He could have made millions of dollars easily. Let other complaints ensue about Google's and Apple's IPO.
