hmmmmmmmmm
you interest me. It seems you have set yourself up for a good flaming.
I'd like to consider myself above such juvenile rantings but because I'm not...
Example of Why You Are Wrong:
I had a HP Pavilion PC, bought brand new in 2000, because I had the same opinion as most of the Uninitiated - "macs are overpriced and horrible"
My brand new PC crashed an average of twice a week. When XP came out, it was installed on the Dell PC's at work. I was happy as I was sick of the crashing with the Pavilion. We installed XP and waited. A total difference! The PC's crashed TWICE a day - the difference was that each time it did so it sent an "error report" to good o'l Microsoft.
When I left work I happened across Apple's website while surfing the web. I belived the hype, "switched" and bought the new flat screen IMac G4 running OS 10.2. It Has Not Crashed Once. Not once. Not with every application up and running simultaneously.
Only one of many reasons why Mac's are so much better.

I most certainly with the drumz.

and as for Massive bureau of everything i have had Mac Os X and the newer versions after that since the day it first came out. now i'll be honest there are times when somehing crashes however, it has yet to be Mac Os X that crashed. true other programs have crashed (those of course include the wide range of microsoft office porducts) but i'm always able to force quit out of that program and then continue on with what i was doing.
Every.....Single.....Time

Yes Tiger is a great OS with its UNIX underpinnings, but there's something charming about the CPM of TRS80s. You can get by with 28k of video ram too.
