Well said Tech. I've never been an "Apple guy", and am committed to using a PC at work. But Apple are light years ahead of the rest of the tech industry whenever it comes to intuitive user interfaces and industrial design. Who could deny this?

My folks have a hard time accomplishing anything on a computer, but they learned to use an iPod to its full capacity in less than 5 minutes. I love my PC and my Verizon XV6700 PocketPC smartphone, but I'm a techie guy. Would I suggest one of them to a non-techie audience...ie 90% of society? No. An Apple product? Absolutely.

BTW, why can't I buy a PC laptop that is as sleek and elegantly designed as the G4 Titanium powerbook introduced SIX YEARS AGO? Just went to order a new PC laptop and they all look the same as they did in 1997.
