I never said Mac was "best" for me, nor did I say that PC wasn't "best" for others. NO computer is "best" for everyone, and that will never be true. I use Macs, Wintel PCs, and UNIX machines in my work. Any current Windows or Mac OS machine is great for a new user nowadays. They each have advantages and disadvantages, but they will "do" for just about anyone. There's really no clear and compelling argument for or against either anymore. Macs are much cheaper than they used to be, and Windows is much easier to use than it used to me. I only said what I said because it gets boring hearing PC users who don't have a clue about the actual, *current* Mac market spewing the same stuff they've been using to bash Macs for the past 15 years. Most PC people (not all, but the vast majority) really don't know what they're talking about when it comes to Macs, simply because they aren't familiar enough with the market, the hardware, the software, etc. They hear stuff from magazines, websites, or their friends. Those of us who actually use and support multi platforms get tired of it (and it comes from Mac people, too, don't get me wrong). P.S. Matt, if you'd like, I could find a blow-out sale on Macs with pretty incredible prices, too. You can find a "limited supply" amazing price on any computer. But if you go to each of these manufacturer's sites and pick comparable, currently shipping units, you'll find that the prices are pretty comparable for similar setups. Here's a good comparison site: <http://www.aapltalk.com/shootouts/> Yes, it's a "Mac" site, but a pretty objective one. In fact, you'll find that Macs *don't* win every comparison ;) ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
