[crazy25000]

well thats what i meant but i couldnt think of the right word so i hoped by including linux people would realize what i meant that was my fault.

I switched to Mac in 2006. I have nothing against Microsoft ("hate" is mean word), but Windows was the source of too many sleepless nights and hair-pulling for me.

My computer is a custom Compaq Presario x6000, my O/S is XP Pro, love it. I hate Vista, but too be more accurate, Vista was & is still not readly for release, it should still be in Beta stage.

Frankly, I use microsoft products all the time . I had my share of problems (O.K., that IS an understatement ), but somehow I never managed to get accustomed to macs. In fact, I always thought of Apple products as a bit overpriced...
As for Microsoft's support for HD DVD, I really do not care. My blu drive works perfect with Vista and I do believe that eventually, MS will see the blu light

I've used an Apple/Mac since the mid 1980s and never had a problem. Currently have a 17" iMac desktop (1.83 GHz Intel Core Duo, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB Hard Drive). We also have a Toshiba laptop at home that runs Windows Vista for our business.

Go Mac and Go Blu... could life be any better?

Mac is too expensive, simple as that. So I, like many others, really have little choice when it comes to buying a computer.

[jubaiweaponx]

yeah i`d love to try a mac but just too expensive ,my next one i`ll prob spring for but for noe microsoft has my money ,lol

As a gamer, it's PC all the way. But I like a previous poster stated, Vista is practically still in beta mode. I'll get it later when they've got all the bugs out.
Win XP works fine for me anyhow.

I have been a PC person for MANY years. I started building my own machines when MS-DOS 2.0 was new. I love tinkering with machines by "getting under the hood". I am also a hard core gamer and I like to tweak the system to squeeze as much power out of my machine. You are limited with Mac systems when it comes to this.

Nothing but Solaris for me. I've run nothing but Solaris on my machines since day one.

IHMO, anyone who uses M$ products--unless there is absolutely no alternative--has more money than sense. And anyone using M$ Office need their heads examining.

Just got a Macbook last week. With all the maintenance that's required on PCs in order to have them run properly, and with the abomination that is Vista, I decided to try my luck with Mac. My wife has had one for a year, very little maintenance and zero problems, and all the Mac stuff is 100x more intuitive than anything MS puts out. So far I'm pretty happy with it.

That is a bunch of crap Vista works great and there is no maintenance involved. An abomination statement is a load of crap.
