immune to hype. I was looking at some older articles he wrote, where he said that
OmniOutliner for OS X combined the best features of BrainStorm, NoteMap, Echo, and
GrandView. Yeah, right. Omin isn't _that_ feature rich; and no one, including James,
mentions that OS X is painfully slow and not terribly stable, traits which
considerably diminishing any application it runs.

I know I'm risking this being escalated into another "flaming" war, but I couldn't stand any longer.

I would appreciate if you could post something that would be helpful to people on this board, and avoid making any snide remark about folks who might not have the opportunity to defend themselves in this forum.

Also, if I didn't know better, I would think you would be on MS's payroll. Your repeated attacks on Mac is getting tiresome. Mac is an excellent platform on its own right, and it offers certain outlining programs that have features that are currently not available in the Windows platform, Omni being one. I don't think I have found any Windows equivalent of Omni, DEVONthink, Tinderbox, or even Notetaker. Although Eastgate (maker of Tinderbox) has been working on the windows version of Tinderbox for a long time.

Thanks.
