My question is....why doesn't everyone just have a PC? I'm not biased, just look at the facts: PCs are more common anywhere, Macs have had buggy problems since well...forever, 99.9% of all (good) computer games run ONLY on PCs, and the interfaces in Win 95 through XP were more user friendly than the Mac OS.

You must be joking. I mean seriously. Using a PC is like sticking your face through a grinder to get rid of acne. It's painful. Unpleasant. Virus prone. Freeze happy. Overburdened with useless litter. The only reason to use a PC is for games, and/or rare instance of JAVA or other applications which are not Mac combatible in some business settings.

But I came from the PC world. I used both equally from OS 8.6 to OS 9.1. Then OSX came into my life and frankly I've been as happy as ever. All OFFICE software runs on Mac. Adobe CS2 is a dream on Mac. Built on Linux - with easy terminal use, phenomenal network handling, brilliant desktop management and the like. Multitasking across dual monitors is standard. Since completely shedding Classic, I've never seen a crash. Heck, my computer has stayed powered on for months and months and months at a time - multitasking across a dozen high RAM apps without even a blink. I plug and play devices almost without thinking. I do not worry about viruses. I do not fret about spyware. I travel worry free. APPLE OSX is heaven on earth.

No. No. Windows is a god-forsaken creation of the devil meant to enslave the common man in an inferior world. I will never ever ever ever turn away from OSX. Windox MXP111111 could come along with free simulated blows and I still would not be swayed. I feel for the PC user's pain. Many at my office have them. Occassionally, I am forced to watch them clunk around through their desktop like primates, flicking through the task bar in desperation, cursing at "helpers", locking up with the slightest network hang, and I pity them. Oh, I do pity them.

Suggesting getting rid of MACs is like suggesting we get rid of the Ferrari or Porsche and everyone drive Subarus. Insanity.
