DeleteiKlary seeks the truth. With my apologies to Jack Nicholson...

"You want the truth? You can't handle the truth! Son, we live in a world that has networks, and those networks have to be guarded by men with PCs. Who else is gonna do it? Macs? Steve Jobs? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for iMac and you curse the PCs. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Apple's death, while tragic, will unit others. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, aids in that unification. You don't want the truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at parties, you want a PC on that desk, you need NT on that network. We use words like Intel, Microsoft, Windows. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent learning something. You use them as a punchline. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the network that I provide and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a weapon and stand at post. Either way, I don't give a damn what you think."
You don't have to live in the same state that Jack N. comes to routinely to beat the crap out of people in Aspen with golf clubs, but it helps.
