Of course, there's also which OS you would prefer to use, if stability is not an issue. I personally favor the Mac, hardware- software- and OS-wise, but some of my reasons may not apply to most people (I'm a professional musician, for one). > and there's the old argument about software availability. Which begs two questions: 1) How much of the available software will you actually use? 2) How much of the available software is any good? Everything I do on a computer, I find I would rather do on a Mac, with the exception of a few games I play that aren't available for the Mac. It's partly because of the quality of Mac-specific software, and partly because the Mac is better-suited for some of those tasks, but it's also partly because I even find the Mac more aesthetically pleasing (and I'm not talking about all the fruity iMac colors). It may not sound very important, but it makes using a computer that much more enjoyable for me. But again, that's a personal preference, YMMV. Then again, I don't know how much all this matters to you (the original poster); how often would you be running Linux again? :) Jesse -- !! Jesse C.
