I've been a Mac user since the MacIIci. Usually, at home, I stayed one
model ahead of what I got at work. My primary home computer now is a recent
MacBook Pro, and I like it, but Apple's think different finally got to me.
When I decided to do some serious video/DVD work and discovered there was no
way to get video into the Mac except through a digital camera or a $300 box,
I just bought a PC tower and equipped it with a PCI card, which works fine.
Hardware and software for the PC is much less expensive than for the Mac and
it does a great job. Also, Windows XP is a trouble free system. I'll
probably add XP as a native system to the MacBook Pro too. I have two Macs
and two PCs on my home wireless lan and all have high speed internet access
and at least one printer to share off the Mac Airport. The PCs were at
least as easy to integrate as the Macs. Word, Excel, photo, and music files
are shared by all.

You really enjoy that MS interface?

It works trouble free and there isn't all that much difference between the
XP interface and many of the Mac interfaces. I can make the XP interface
appear about any way I wish. When I'm in a Word or Excel document, and many
other types, there isn't any interface difference between OSX and XP.

Do you have a specific point you wish to make?
