MacOS, last I heard.

Decent?  Not in most of their products that I use.  Free?  Where "free"
means, "included as part of the price".  See below.

CHEAP?  CHEAP?  Office Pro costs something like GBP600, last time I
looked.  That's not cheap for the home user, and can't imagine it's
great for the small business either.  A Win 95-98 upgrade costs
something like GBP300 I think.  I've no idea what the US prices would
be, but probably considerably less than in "rip-off Britain", as our
tabloids are currently calling it.

Still, not cheap compared to say, StarOffice.

It's _because_ we don't have "Gates-free machine"s that we complain.

Cheers,

Martin.
