Re: "IBM PCs all still run on MSDOS, although nowadays all software runs through MS Windows" and all the other references to IBMcompat and Mac OSs in the entry.

Wildly incorrect. Although Windows has the majority of the x86 market in its grasp (BTW, the latest version of Windows is XP, not ME), many people use Linux, OS/2, other DOS OSs, etc.

In fact, the wonderful people at Yellowdog have recently ported Linux to the Mac, so everyone with a 'stylish' iMac in front of them can enjoy the (obvious?) benefits of Linux as well smiley - smiley
