Apple When it comes to using computers, it used to be (and still rings true today) that most people find the Mac platform to be either loathsome or lovable with few spectators taking middle ground on the issue.

Apple reality check

Oh boy...here we go again :-)

I bought into the mac back in 2000 when OS X PB hit the street. Love the OS, even like the cute Cube on my desk. Now i need to get a second computer for my house. I could either:

1. Get a new iMac or TiBook
2. Get a PC

I really can't justify the price of a whole new Mac right now until there is a substantial performance enhancement over my cube. Therefore, i'm doing what anonymous claims is possible (and it is). I'm building a PC to add to my Mac network. Estimated out of pocket expense is less than $500. I'm not swearing off mac, just holding my dough until G5 or Power4 hits the streets.
