Bacon and ketchup are needed as well. - Trollslayer Have a bit more patience with newbies. Of course some of them act dumb - they're often *students*, for heaven's sake - Terry Pratchett

        I wonder how long it will be until we see the first 'Apple Store opens in Heaven' newspaper type cartoonist sketch (like those by Matt)?

              Whilst in Hell, say hello to Billy G, Stevie B and the rest of the Microsoft elite for me. I expect Bill's punishment is to sit at a desk writing code for an accounts package on an apple IIe, in COBOL, with a wonky power supply and only a tape back-up. Ballmer's hell will be to come up with original ideas!

                                        Neither would be so successful without the other.

                                          Only if Bill has found a new job currently as "Bill Gates, deliverer of cancer and death". In that case - yes.
