I look at computers, much the way I look at sports cars. When you outgrown them, move up, don't both trying to make them something the factory didn't intend them to be.
In 25+ years of using Apples, had the spring behind a power supply button go once. Never a single problem with HDs, ram, monitors, crashing, locking up, or losing files. Not a one. They were all used a lot too, and while I no longer use them, I still have more than a half dozen of them in the basement, all working just fine. My current comp is a HP running Vista. I've had several problems with it, both with hardware, and software. Only other PC I've used, was an old, um, can't even remember now, but a brand name running Win97. That comp had a lot of miles on it, but never gave me any problems. In the next year or so, I'll probably get a new comp. I'm leaning towards a 27 inch iMac, but I'm sure something better will be available in a year or so.
