After being drug almost literally kicking and screaming over to Mac I will flat out tell you it is a better system. But this guy is a little scary in his avid Mac fandom.http://securityawareness.blogs....html

I had a lady leave my store (Gamestop) chanting "long live the mac"over and over again, because I told her that we no longer sold mac software because there was no demand for it what so ever. I sat on some copies of mac software for more then 5 years...

I've never used a MAC either, (maybe its a ken-a-jun thing? j/k)All the software I use at work is PC based, so I'm stuck there, the CAD I use runs on Windows, not Mac.oh well.

lol,god i love how they make apple to be some crazy (removed) brain washing company, yet they are just a minority in the computer world, that innovate.The reason for the price is that they are prolly the highest quality computer maker and best customer support (consumer reports rates them as #1 in repair and #1 or #1 in support). BECAUSE its all in house. You pay what you get for, and when you go buy a 400 dell and it breaks...theres a reason. windows has so many errors because it has to support so many different things and it gets confused and lost :/ and i would say the human nature to click things that say free....

I just bought a ibook yesterday. Give me some time on the Mac before I start bashing one of them.

I just ordered a Mini and should have it this week. I also got an older PowerMac G4 from work that I'm rehabilitating (or at least attempting to, with help from millster). I was never anti-Mac, really never was exposed to anything but Windows since I've been into computers (not counting my Commodore 64 and 128 ). I like what I've seen so far though, pretty intuitive.

I used to be a rabid mac fan back in the Quadra / PowerPC 60x days... then when jumped ship in the OS9 days - too many reasons. Going to school for MCSE was a big reason But Also needed cheaper hardware so I didn't have go broke getting a modern computer.Now that OSX is here and linux based - and they'll be switching over to faster Intel platform, I'll be switching back. I'm tired of Windows... now I'm in training with my CCNA then on to CCIE-V so I can get away from admin'ing windoze.
