They don't have to be bound to the dark side.  I gave my wife a Mac Mini
for her birthday with a copy of Microsoft Office 2004 for Mac installed.

Now she doesn't have to listen to me bitch and moan whenever something went
wrong with her old Windows box.

If you want government to intervene domestically, you're a liberal.  If you
want government to intervene overseas, you're a conservative.  If you want
government to intervene everywhere, you're a moderate.  If you don't want
government to intervene anywhere, you're an extremist -- Joseph Sobran
