I hate Linux too, especially because I'm reminded of 12-year-olds sitting at their lunch table talking about Quake and compiling their kernels, whereas I'm many tables away talking about chicks, driving, and the like. Something a certain new driver here should be able to relate to

The absolute only thing I can think of that a Mac can't do (and only for the moment) is have Lesane's username Glow in his Store hack work in the latest OSX browsers.
Graphics in games/all adobe software/dvds etc. are all incredible on a Mac!
What are you doing comparing a 2000 windows machine to a mac from the 80's?

Virtual PC is okay...

BTW, playing Quake 3 today as I said...I started out at 5 hrs remaining on battery life. When I stopped 40 minutes later, I was down to half an hour left on the battery.

NTLDR is right, it is about preference, I got a Powermac G4 with OS X, and its pretty nice, but I can't seem to get away from windows. DOn't get it wrong, I grw up on mac, then moved to windows at a young age

At least IE will display pages properly, I've never seen a site look as good in Netscape, Mozilla, or any other browser. Face it, IE is the best. Shame there will be no IE7

IE for OSX is quick and smooth...and I definitely have had performance problems with Mozilla browsers. I was referring more to the security related bugs.
I also agree with you that it is completely a preference.
