Well, I don't know about "deserve" but it's what we have here.  The Mac
users are another story.

Now ... if anyone thinks their selling skills are really really good,
you could try to convince Hopkins to switch to something else.  Note
that Hopkins has spent - by now - over $222,000,000 on a university wide
"enterprise software" package from SAP.  SAP on Windows machines will
not work properly without ActiveX ennabled.  When ActiveX is enabled SAP
works marginally better.
