No, actually, that's not the reason, but I sure wish the Safari wouldn't
slow down so much after every upgrade. As a longtime Mac user as well the
commercials make me cringe. I really like Vista and XP and many MS products,
and as good as Apple products are, they don't let others make their stuff. I
lived through the first time they tried that. But, then, it would really
help everyone if XP and Vista were compatible to each other. My Mac and Mac
software from 1994 are compatible with my Mac today. But, MS has more great
stuff and is more open to getting their ideas sparked by others. So, 6 of
one, half a dozen of the other. But, frankly, I can't stand those
commercials. It's like you've NEVER, EVER had a problem using Mac. It
happens. LOL
