Hm... Newton Taliban??? ;-)

(Sorry, but I couldn't resist!) Let's be honest. What he and Slashdevnull
Dave are doing is trying to provide an honest counterpoint. If we cannot
honestly evaluate our Newtons, then where are we? Newtghanistan?

Please, my point is that we don't need to be rude or pushy with people, just
because they extol the virtues of the Palm. The Palm is an elegant solution
in many ways. The Newton is better, but, as has been stated, it didn't grab
the market like the Palm did. Sometimes the majority doesn't have the same
priorities that we do. I can live with that. I'm happy with my choice. Why
can't I allow somebody to be happy with his choice--if he's truly happy?

...wondering if the "Hitler" of the beginning of the 21st century is going
to be Osama Bin Laden? If so, then who is going to be the Ayn Rand???
