        Prefix a ``some'' in there for enhanced accuracy.

        [warning:  OT age spoiler]

	When I was in school, my comp sci professor told the class that 
Windows 95 was the future of computing.  When I entered the work force, 
one of the most well-respected technologists in my area told me that I 
would someday have to use Windows in my career (I was the guy in my 
company with a Sun on my desk).

	In all of the time I've been doing this, people have told me similar 
things.  This seems to make them feel better for doing things they 
don't like.  The thing I've noticed is that it just keeps getting 
easier to avoid Windows, and I imagine that that will not be changing.  
I've always managed to have a Sun, SGI, NetBSD, OS X, or Linux box as 
my primary computer at any job I've had, and I'm starting to not be the 
only one.

	That said, if such win32 interoperability allows me to avoid breaking 
archives due to case insensitivity, let me know how I can help.  :)
