If it ran on a Dell, or HP. I would have a balls out machine - CHEAP!

But to run it on a mac, would cost about $1000.00 more

That's a lie.

What is a lie? That I would use OSX? I would use it - it's an OS,
like
Windows. Or close enough to Windows.
Or that a fairly well matched mac would cost $1000.00 more? -- It would.
So where exactly is the lie?

Well, maybe not a $1,000 more but yea, it would undoubtedly cost more.
A shame, but that's the way it APPEARS to be. Some will argue about
the quality of the hardware, and being a Macintosh user, I have to say
I absolutely love the quality of my PowerBook.

But the truth of the matter is that a $499 Dell laptop would get most
of what my > $1,000 PowerBook G4 gets done, and with a bigger screen.

Nonetheless, I prefer my PowerBook anyday.

Your answer is the most balanced and truthfull of any, that I have seen in
my time on CSMA - I salute you.
