Apple Not too long ago, I sold my iBook, right after the new MacBook was announced. I planned to buy that same MacBook somewhere this summer; however, I started to doubt. I had second thoughts. Let me explain why I decided to not buy a new Mac, but instead opt for a used G4 PowerMac. Note: After being absent for a week, here is another Sunday Eve Column.

One thing

One thing that gives me pause before buying my next Mac is the switch to Intel. I hear some of my fellow mac heads say "the processor doesn't matter". But it does matter a whole lot.

What will be in the incentive for software companies to release mac versions of their software now that you can run Windows in emulation at near native speeds or dual boot? This is one thing Linux users know all too well.

I'll use my dual G4 until it dies but after that, I dunno.
