• very nice, overpriced
  The Appleheads are right: This is a great machine with a nice operating system. The Apple OS, though flawed, is better than MS, especially Vista.
  The Appleheads are wrong: It is probably not worth double the price of a comparable PC. There are almost as many weird crashes and oddball things that don't work as with XP. One reason I got it was Vista is getting such a bad rap and XP will not be supported forever.
  My bottom line: If prices were roughly equivalent (or if money is no object for you), I... more info

• Hi, I'm a Mac :)
  I've decided to retire my second generation G4 (8.5 years old) as it has served its purpose. Never complaining or crashing unlike WinTurd machines I've used at work and home. But video wasn't great in a web browser and I couldn't upgrade to the latest OS or use the latest Adobe suite.

I run os x, windows xp, vista business, and ubuntu on my macbook pro and i couldn't ask for more flexiblity from a laptop that most people who aren't familiar with the real... more info

• Overkill?? Hardly!
  I'm not going to tell you how wonderful this Mac is. If you've been around Macs for any length of time, you already know there will be no disappointment if you choose this model.
  Instead, I want to address those who wonder if the Mac Pro is overkill. Listen, if you make your living on the Mac (or if you simply want the best) this machine is a terrific value. It is an engineering marvel, especially from the user's point of view. It is highly self-serviceable thanks to the designers at Apple. If you want... more info
