It takes all kinds, but the kinds that have to post gratuitous insults don't get any respect from my direction.

Oh, c'mon, Floyd. Get real. I've read your posts longer than anyone here, I think, and our history goes back to another non-photography newsgroup that I still follow. *No one* tops you in gratuitous insults.

Personally, I don't understand why you are bothering about this particular subject matter. How you process your images, and the OS and the software, is completely immaterial. A good photographer sees what is photographable and processes that image to its best advantage. How that processing is done, on what OS and with what software, is no one's business but the person who took the image.

All this dick-waving about who uses the better machine or the better OS is ridiculous. Why anyone cares how someone else processes their image is beyond me. Especially, when it's someone like the noisiest dick-waver here who has *never* shown us that he takes or processes *any* image.

And, especially, when a fantastic shot could be linked here and no one could tell from the image what brand of computer or what OS or what program was used to process that image.
