Ever heard of NVidia, ATI, Hitachi, Seagate, Kingston etc. ?
Macs and PCs use THE SAME STUFF!!! Bar the processor/motherboard but even they are more than likely made in the same plants.
I'm sorry, but in my experience, that's utterly retarded.
If you're ever in Silicon Valley, we can go to the local Fry's Electronics
together and peruse the aisles and aisles of crap, Made-in-Futung components
that a lot of people here use to build their cheap-ass Windoze boxes.
Yes, I know that there are PC's built with high-quality, name brand
components. But I promise you that for every one of those, there are ten
built with components so cheap, you'd better pay close attention to how you
exhale, or your box will need to go to the shop.
Best,

Apple in not a step above the rest in hardware or software quality. They've released some serious duds and bombs just like everyone else. Advocacy is great, but zelotry will turn off more people than it will convert.
I use both platforms, along with some smaller niche ones, and each has their place. This list is for discussing G4 issues, lets work on keeping the SNR up a bit?
Now, straying dangerously back on topic, I've got a G4 DA, OWC 1ghz cpu, OEM 32MB GeForce 4MX AGP vid, that refuses to wake from sleep in 10.3, but does just fine under 9.2. Not sure what to try to correct this. The machine powers up, but never initializes the screen.
