Case in point (me: works professionaly on PCs in IT industry, but used to be mac head when younger)

- Bought a new PC for my parents because that is what they knew, no choice... 2 days of hassle and phone calls /setup, removal of norton crap, internet issues, firewall, major PITA

- Bought my wife a Mac Book last w/e: Up and runnign in 10 minutes, everythign worked, no drivers required, integrated Icam, and I even had XP running in a window (parallel desktop) an hour later (that's XP installing slow, can't blame the mac)

Now that you can use XP on the mac (not even boot camp style, parallel desktops is awesome becasue you don't reboot) if you really have to, I don't see any reason to keep on buying Windoze machines. They keep me employed at work due to their crappiness, at home I'd rather have the mac, thanks a lot !

Saving for a 24" Imac...
