What it all comes down to is its **** dowloading/storing/viewing capabilites, and when it comes to that, an Apple will own a PC. I cant tell you how many times ive had to reinstal Windows on my PC due to porno/operating system (virus) conflicts....

the battery problem has been solved. i just got a imac intel core duo. i love it it has a 250gig hard drive and it is never slow. i works great, the only down side is that software is expensive and it doesnt come with microsoft office. i wouldnt suggest a laptop because you can get 3 times the computer for the same price if you go with the desktop.

The new ones are problem free!

Mac's just rock! They don't lock up, they don't have any virus's, adware, spyware, etc...

There faster then windows pc's. They also look better, and just are better.

I'm a IT guy and was forced to use Mac's at my last job. Hated it for about a month, then never looked back!
Since I was working in a mixed environment, my Mac problems were less then 5% of the same problems with PC's
When I had a Mac problem, it took less time to fix. No reformatting & starting all over again like PC's.

Now you can run Windows XP on any new Macbook. They ROCK!

One word of advice, get a 2 button mouse.
