IBM was the alleged nemesis of Jobs and Apple in 1983 before the 1984 release of the first macintosh. Jobs referred to IBM as Big brother, and portrayed Apple as the thinking mans, little mans, or common mans computer. Apple is still the sole producer of the computers which run its software. As long as they do business this way they will never take Microsoft or Linux, and they know it. That's why they have specialized ads which attract their core audience - people who use their computers because they help them accomplish what they want to do, or people who like to feel smug about owning a computer. As a mac owner I've never understood the latter group.

These are cool. I'll have too do a more in depth reading of the manual. I've been pouring over poser 4 lately, but really have to get back to Bryce. It was my first product for 3D creation, and my favourite. I recently aquired AutoCad R 14 from an uncle for a birthday gift (He is an Architect, and hopes I'll join the fanily firm someday.) I'm still learning the interface, and hope, with time, to make some useful things for the Bryce Forum. If you have any sugestions, advice, experience with AutoCad R 14 for use in Bryce (I've only used AutoCad for Windows 3.1, but I'm learning the R 14 for 98) it would be appreciated, and I'll do my best. That's all I can promise. Twister
