[s-cars] Intro and stalling thread...Bentley is Mac compatable

[Tom Green]

Kenny,

What version of Bentley for the S6 are you running?  The e-bahn 2.5
versions for sale are licensed to one computer, and as many listers will
testify, is a pain just to reinstall, and it certainly doesn't  
install and
natively run on OSX.

Since the '92 to '97 100, A6 and S4, S6 Bentley covers all models, it  
comes
in 3 printed volumes and weighs 17 lbs, so it's advantage is not  
convenience
in carrying around.  :-)  You just don't have to plug it in and it's  
easy to book-
mark pages.

Tom
