The mac people on the boards right now are just as stupid, so who cares? 
Really, 8/9ths of the questions and topics on those boards could have 
been avoided if the person asking had been intelligent and resourceful 
enough to read a FAQ.  I've seen PC based communities a lot smarter, so 
don't try to say it's correlated to what platform people use, which 
doesn't matter much anyway.

I doubt EVN will become the next big windows hit anyway-- it's a very 
crowded market over there.  If ASWs recent tendency towards profiteering 
and [LOTS of] hype bothers you, you can always find some new fresh mac 
shareware company to latch onto.
