Re: Slightly OT: Leopard vs. Vista

["Trevor Perry" <tperry@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Scott,

Being a mac user, I cannot WAIT for Leopard. I am willing to fork out the 
$149 for the OS upgrade, because it offers so much in the new release. Most 
of my mac friends cannot wait, either. Although, I still am running my 
PowerPC (G4) chip...

Being an i5/OS user, I cannot WAIT for V5Rn+1 - and since it is free under 
my software maintenance, I am more excited. Most of my green friends are 
just fine with SEU, thank you very much.

How do we make the latter as excited as the former? I think it is a little 
enthusiasm, mixed with a dash of positivity, and a pinch of being engaged - 
one way is to engage them in things like this:

In fact, I think one of yours is there :-)
