"I said "used to" because I dumped it. Hasn't crashed since, though." Clever of you to dump a computer you never had. "Techweb cites a study showing that in _digital_media_ the Mac somehow comes out ahead. Nowhere does the article say that Macs are easier to use or more stable." Really? Just why do you suppose that Mac users are more productive? How is it that business people amortize the cost of them so much faster than PCs? More "up" time perhaps? Less support required? BTW, here's another "golden oldie" from the CEO of Gateway who claims PC users spend 27% of their time fiddling with their OS; news.com. You should remember it. "For all we know that advantage could well be done to superior Adobe software on the Mac (an advantage that I have no problem recognizing)..." Really? Do you suppose the graphic artists working on PCs were using software that wasn't comparable to their Mac bretheren? Fact is, Windows in all its incarnations is harder to use and less stable than the Mac OS. Period. Bob
