I think a lot of people, or myself perhaps, are missing some key points. Some people are complaining that Macs aren't heavily controlled by software, like clock and multiplier controls. Macs are built hardware first, then software within those specifications, pc's are dynamic in both ways, software pushes the specifications on the hardware. I think this might be what causes a lot of the problems in pc's as it is. And doesn't it say something that the company is, at least, telling the end users that the chips come set to perform as well as they can. lol. Instead of, yeah here is your chip, and if you are a geek you can get it to work up to design specifications. *snicker snicker*

Mac's don't have as much support - Of course not, they are extremely stable.

Not enough programs - Thats what happens when you have less then double digits in marketshare. Only we can change this.

That being said, I use a pc, for now. I have to stick with the mainstream temporarily, but Steve Jobs is still my hero, and one day I will have a mac.

Sidenote - Somebody said that IE's updating showed they care about their customers. pfft. In a press release a few weeks ago, they said something to the effect of, they were doing no more updates for that version. In order to get the more secured version you'd have to purchase the highest version of windows or some bullshit like that. I saw it on Bullseye. Anyway, it ended up sounding like, "Well, despite the fact that we delivered shit, keep paying and we promise we'll get it right next time. For now, stick with our shit product."

Anyway, I don't hate MS, in fact I love it. But they difinitely help push people away with their antics.

Long live open source browsers.
