INTCfan, I've been strictly a PC guy for 15 years. (the reason I bought Dell in 95) The unfortunate thing about Mac users is that their under the misunderstanding that Windows machines are still running like Win 3.1. I often ask them (1 guy in particular) if he's ever used a WinPC and he says he hasn't. I ask him one simple question. 'Do you think that Apple has anywhere near the resources of INTC MSFT DELL to develop these things?' The answer is no. The reason Windows PCs have the most market share is because their the best & easiest to use. I had a Mac guy tell me that the Mac OS was more 'elegant'....what the hell does that mean? Is it a better dancer? There's also that residual "Bill Gates is evil" phenomena. 2 words for MAC users....right click. JH p.s. I think PC folks are more conservative because businesses are mostly PC based where as "artsy-fartsy" types have been using Macs for years. An almost strictly liberal sect. (Of which I'm part of, incidentally) I consider myself far more conservative than them. (coincidence?)
