bendsley - 1000 pardons. I did mean Windows, more specifically than PCs. I am actually a big fan of FreeBSD. I am not used to making that destinction, so I'll have to change my lingo.

1.I am typing on a computer that has a little apple insignia on the computer and attached to that is none other than a mouse with 4 buttons and a mousewheel. Yes, it came seperatly, but I am still quite certian that Mac's can use multi-use mouses.
2. I apprciate that Windows seems to be intersted in keeping your computer safe, but why so often? A regular basis for updates on Mac is very much longer than a regular basis for Windows in this case.
3. I would be glad to show you a list, but instead I'll give you a website! http://store.apple.com/1-800-MY-APPL....3.1.1.0?68,38
You'll notice that popular games like Age of Empires II, Age of Mythology, AvP, Battlefield 1942, Call to Duty, Command and Conquer, Ghost Recon, Halo, Homeworld II, James Bond Nightfire, Jedi Knight 2: Jedi Outcast, 4 Medal of Honor games, Rainbow 6, Spider-Man 2, Tony Hawk Pro Skater 4, Unreal 2004, and Warcraft III are all available on Mac. This isn't even a complete list of Mac games.
4. My Mac has upgraded memory, HDD, and video card. You can build any computer you want, so long as you have the skill necessary. Mac users usually don't upgrade because they are happy with the performance of their computers right off the shelf and stock.
5. Personal prefrence, of course.
6. Yes, but you can put it anywhere you want. The dock can be compared to the strip at the bottom of Windows. If you minimize a window or program, it will be accecessable from the dock. The dock also holds applications and the trash (Mac version of a recycling bin).
7. Passing off an opinion as fact is not truth.
8. Covered above in 4
9. Emulators are a way around the real thing.
10. Apple Computers designes their Mac product line to work best with the OS designed with it, Mac OS. Someone using Windows exclusively on a Mac is missing the point.
