      Why? Nowadays they all run the same hardware. Might as well spare the expensive of the "Mac" and buy a PC and run OSX if you really want a Mac.

      I'd say the smartest and dumbest(only time will tell) move they have made is going to an Intel chip. It may help bring them mainstream, but it really loses the difference between the Mac and the PC. Granted, Unix is maybe a better platform, but now they have the same performance hardware wise.

      At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

        macs 3 biggest accomplishments in recent history:

        1. Intel Processor
        2. Runs Windows
        3. 2 button mouse

        Great, it took you 32 years to do what a PC has been doing since the late 80's...

          Use a mac for a period of time, and then go back to a PC and you'll see why Apple FTW. Every time I have to use a PC it frustrates me.

            whereas every time I use a Mac I die a little.

            they're just too damned expensive - that's all there is to it.

                    What did you expect? Did you all want us to line up to suck your cock just because you bought a mac? Get over it.

                                      i have had 3 different laptops, one i dropped and the other i dropped something on it. spent less than 500 on both, and they kicked ass.

                                      now i have an HP and it does the job. why would you want something that A. cost more and B. does the same thing as anything else.

                                      if you really wanna be different get the boot disk for Ubuntu or Fedora and see how you like it. best of all, its FREE. and you dont have to worry about spyware or virus protection.
