Dear Terry, Josh and all, I am glad to see I have started a small storm in a tea cup. Anyway Macs are too expensive and service/ software scanty in this place -- India that is. I think I'll opt for a locally assembled PC (components imported). Thanks all of you guys and gals who responded so generously to my queries. Are there any good websites for new pc buyers? Thanks again, Joe , India.

Dr. Copel, Very well put. I particularly like the genetic analogy. I know you are correct, I am still holding a grudge against APPLE for abandoning the Apple IIe with no upgrade path to the Mac... old grudges die hard. Guess it is time to give up on this one.

As for the Evil Empire (AKA MicroSoft), I have always held their computability in high esteem... there is code in BASIC BABY that ran on the earliest versions of DOS on an old 8088 that will still run on the latest Windows platform... of course it still looks like old DOS....

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
