But thanks for informing me what I SHOULD be... I'm never sure until you tell me 
I think your example and hyperbolic diatribe equating the assembling of a car to take you to your gigs with assembling 12 parts readily available needed to construct a working PC is a little defensive....yeah.
I can understand someone not wanting to learn how to do some things. Hell I never "learned" how to play the piano but can make a few dollars doing it with the help of the technology.
Nor am I "anti-Apple" I just did not find using a conventional PC the chore others did. Nor would I refer to anyone who knows how to put 12 parts together to make a computer a "geek" any more then I would call someone who plays a full orchestra with the left hand and some melody with the right a "musician". Hell.. even I can do that!!!
