Oh but I have! My first "PC" was a 90mhz Power Mac... boy that sucked. But seriously, my college is about half Mac/half PC so I get even times with both. I agree that Mac would satisfy security nuts and people who like very easy programs to do very complicated things, but the compatability is killer. So is the closed-source nature of Mac. Don't get me wrong, if it came down to using linux or Mac, I would take Mac in a heart-beat, BUT Windows XP gives me everything and more of what I need. It's all good

LoneWolf wrote:Here's where the Macintel boxes look promising. Imagine being able to dual-boot between OS X and Windows XP --WinXP for your games, but OS X the rest of the time. It'll give the best of both worlds, and remove one of the biggest reasons for computing enthusiasts to not buy a Mac.

lol.. Yeah, games are a big thing for me as well. A friend of mine is a huge Mac fan. Whenever he got a new game he'd get all excited. I'd always be like "Oh Warcraft.. I played that last year"
