It's the Evolution vs Revolution argument... Revoltion will get you ahead the quickest but not very far, Evolution will get you further and take an easier route but take longer

I choose EVOLUTION! Its worked for us (human bings). It aught to work for what we create. 'Natural selection by Order of Intelligence'. Has a nice ring to it, I'm tink!  :lol:


Exactly!! The Amiga was a Revolution... the PC is an Evolution.
