Call it coincidence. Kall it Karma. Call it that mondo old bare foot with the uncomfortably large big toe that used to stomp down out of the sky randomly in the old Monty Python show.

After posting my latest grumblings about the Turdmaster and Windows Vista (pa-tooey…), I received an e-mail – an e-mail from Apple!!

In a nutshell, it was just an ad for the brand-new, thinnest i-Pod ever. Coming when it did though, it was like a sign come down from the mountain, offering me salvation and lightning-fast internet access. Offering me reliable word-processing software, and stunning merged program suites like i-Life.

I was not worthy, but still I read the e-mail. The glow from my screen was almost unbearable, pure and good. Even my Microsoft (pa-tooey) mouse seemed more alive, more responsive.

I am close. I am almost halfway to my goal, and soon…soon…my world will be Mac.

No wonder there is a term such as “Big Mac”…

Hey, my latest newspaper column is online again today! See why I will never be mistaken for da Vinci or Edison:
