[QUOTE="MacTrooper, post: 868050, member: 88921"] Roger, dodger, S.SubZero. You beat me to the punch. It was a backspace on typewriters because that was exactly what it did. If you wanted to make something bold on an old IBM selectric, you backspaced and typed the same letters again. At least Apple had the courtesy to call the return key the "return" key.... :) [IMG]http://www.facebook.com/photo.php?pid=30368270&id=1562407362[/IMG] I am certainly no Microsoft apologist, but shouldn't we be careful not to lay blame for all the ills in the world at their feet - even those having to do with PC-based computers, which Microsoft did NOT even invent.
