This is a point I want to bring up regarding the current OS war being waged on this group. Apps have migrated from Unix to the Mac and the PC before in the past. In the further past, this has included curses and other-types-of-text-control packages such as PC versions of Emacs and nethack and the like. Of course, this was not done with graphical programs; everyone knows that graphics isn't Unix's strong suit, and what it has is so different from the PC, etc., blah, blah,... Except that for the past two or three years, it's been WRONG. One of the hottest games on the PC, DOOM, was originally written in Nextstep (a Unix variant, and a ghetto even amidst the "ghetto" of Unix) and then ported to the PC. I don't know which Unix environment they're using in the "master" development effort before porting to other environments today. Given that games usually program close to the hardware, and are therefore the _most_ difficult things to port from one environment to another, it really makes one wonder why Excel isn't out for (for example) Linux or BSD today. Then again, SCO WordPerfect is... Phil
