What war? A war implies that one side will be victorious. OSX market is
simply ignored by MS. Just a pathetic minority attempting to justify
spending 400% more for a PC.

Prove that a Mac costs 400% more than a PC. Just prove it -remember,
compare like to like (not a loss leader $300 PC to a top-of-the-line
$3000 Quad G5 Mac. Hmmm, that still isn't 400%, is it?).



My brother recently purchased a new 20" Intel iMac, and gave me his 17" Intel
iMac.

I thought the price was very reasonable. We both got two machines in one --
a Mac (With OS 10.4.4) and a Windows machine. Now we can both maximize all
our Windows software as well as our Apple software.

He paid about $1750 (after discount), plus two gigs of extra memory (not from
Apple, however). So all in all, he paid about $1950. His machine arrived
within 5 days of ordering it.

Needless to say, we are both happy campers today.

Please, Wintel users, stop believing all the FUD about Macs. I used to
believe it, and coming to realize that that is just what it is: "Fear,
Uncertainty, and Doubt".

In addition, I am trying very hard to no longer "diss" Apple.

Mac and Windows Fanatics both, however, are entirely different cases.
