It's quite handy being root on the realmedia servers :)  I've just checked
last nights 6pm news and it doesn't seem as bad as your email implies, they
simply interviewed somebody who was clearly too clueless to have even heard
of a Mac.

It didn't appear to mention anything about the internet, MS only have a 23%
share there, infact they're piddly compared to sun.  .co.uk domains are 11.7%
MS rest unix.
