I didn't say educational, I said interesting. Who's misquoting who now? ;-)

Quote - "Now, that you know I won the Apple debate"

Haha! :-) The debate was not about Apple, it was about the "perfect Vue computer", remember? That's the thread title. And, in the end I won the debate because you admitted that a PC was a better choice for Vue than a Mac. Let me quote you (hopefully not misquote): "If its VALUE over performance you are after and you ONLY wanted it for Vue and NOTHING else mattered at all, that may be true at this time."

I still think I'm right about Apple in general but I don't want to discuss it further, sorry but I'm a bit tired of it and, in the end, it's useless because my point was already validated (see above). :-)

Quote - "Also, an apology for making it personal and questioning my education background (something I didn't do) would be nice. "

I never questioned your education background. I trust you have the background you say you have and never questioned it. All I said is that someone's background is not relevant for a discussion. Knowledge and opinions should prove themselves right without the need to be reenforced by one's background. You probably never heard a Nobel prize winner validating his statements by saying "... this is like this and I know I'm right because I'm a Nobel prize winner".
However, I do apologize for not having made myself clear in this respect in our discussion. :-)

Regarding making it personal, you are right there, I did make it slightly personal in some points because I didn't like your attitude, for the reasons that I mentioned already ("pulling ranks") and I got a little bit irritated. I should have known better not to get irritated by things like this and for that I do apologize. :-)

Let's shake hands! :-)
