I think you have that backward. You select the application (software)
and then install the system that runs it.



Sorry. That's what I meant. You don't buy the computer that doesn't run
what you want. But, alas, millions of Apple owners do.....



Ah, but the cachet of NOT using MS.

Funny. Back in the days when MS was known for making the Z-80 card so
you could plug one in and run CP/M software they were good guys. We
ran the whole company on Apple ]['s and Z-80 cards at one time.

Now that they are a real success they are "bad guys".
