	I was slightly amazed to see that in the HIG; this used to acutely
frustrate people I worked with, when we used windows; a dialog would
arrive something like:

	"I just trashed all your data from the last week"
	"                     [ ok ? ]                  "

> Is "OK" really a good word to use?  It's a bit meaningless - OK _what_ ?

	I'm no expect, but I suspect the screams of "No it is not OK !!" are
perhaps not isolated to my experience.

	Regards,

		Michael.
