I will take a one piece iMac over a PC system any day BUT running Vista. If I have the budget I would buy everyone an iMac and run Vista. I wish PC vendors start making one piece unit like Apple. Too many damn wires man! (Speaker wires, AC adapters, video adapters, mouse wires, KB wires) How about start incorporating wireless NIC into desktop systems? Have you all seen the size of the AC adapter on Dell machines? They are almost as large as the small form factor unit. ALL built-in speakers are worth sh1t on PC vendors(IBM/DELL). Music sounds like midi files coming from these built-in speakers.

When a Mac fails, they don't flinch, just look for me patiently. I have five Mac desktops and three Mac laptops here at the Museum. About eight or 10 have Macs at home too. For the in-house users, I give them an extra monitor and run Parallels with Microsoft Office (Outlook) running, as all the other apps don't have all that Outlook offers. And I run Exchange here. One likes to use OWA, but the rest like to use Office for Outlook. A year or so ago I used Macs with two monitors at home as well as at the office to see the difference. The Macs are sweet, but I just like PC's better, even withstanding the half or third better pricing.
