MAX- Re: Don't want to step on your parade, but I remember seeing recently that Apple's cap is larger than Microsoft... wish I knew where at this moment... but I think you will find that Apple, dispite being on crutches, is still larger than Microsoft. " Boy are you clueless! Sounds like somebody stepped on your brain when you took it out for cleaning. Microsoft's market capitilaztion is almost 70 (SEVENTY) times that of Apple : Microsoft Cap = $159,752,000,000 vs. Apple Cap = $2,348,000,000. For reference, Microsoft's capitilization is in the top five of all companies on PLANET EARTH. I will assume you have been hiding under a rock for the past 7 1/2 years because nobody with half an ounce of brains could be so oblivious as to the current relative size of these two companies. The MAC may be much easier to run for you. However, the 175,000,000 others who regularly use Wintel machines find these easy enough to use. I don't see them lined up to buy new Apple machines. Paul
