I like them. Especially their soft-touch keyboards. Makes or breaks it for
me IMO.

I'm an open minded sort of person. The sexual orientation of my
computer doesn't really matter to me anyway.

The keyboard on my Mac is actually quite a nice thing to use, it's much
better than the crap most people I know use by choice day in day out.
The mouse on the other hand, I found to be a pool of steaming pish.

Thought? Most unlikely.


Oooh look at this shiny, shiny new MacBook Pro that I am typing on. 17"
screeen, 2Gb of RAM, 160GB HD and two fast little processors. It's
running Windows XP virtualised in the background and it's running it
faster than my last Windows Laptop. which expired on Saturday with a
bang.

Parallels? It is great, although it struggles with isochronous mode USB
forwarding, it seems. Still, yes, my macbook is a fantastic little machine.

Yes, absolutely sodding brilliant. I took the drive out of hte fritzed
laptop and installed it in another. Then booted up and imaged the disk
using the tools provided with Parallels. Installed the hard disk image
ont he MacBook booted into Parallels and it's like nothign happened. The
same environment with all the tools, data etc in their correct places.

Unbelievable but also very gratifying.

Hell, I'm just astounded that it works, including access to all the same
peripherals including the scanner, printers and so on without a single
detectable fl...... [NO CARRIER]

Certainly owners are 'happy' since Apple invented a use for the Mac, as an
interface between the iPod and the internet.

Not my quote but sums up Mac users pretty well IMHO. (quote taken from
hardocp.com)

I hate Macs. I have always hated Macs. I hate people who use Macs. I even
hate people who don't use Macs but sometimes wish they did. Macs are
glorified Fisher-Price activity centres for adults; computers for scaredy
cats too nervous to learn how proper computers work; computers for people
who earnestly believe in feng shui.

I think the PC interface between iPod and the Internet certainly is a
pile of shit in comparison.
