Job's Pets. >Apple Macintosh used to have advantage over PC's. That is Macintosh was easy to use, PC's was hard to use always gave you unfriendly error message. Now, everything is reversed, besides, PC's are much more cheaper. Who wants to buy high priced more troublesome Macintosh? May be Jobs pets will!!< Market sectors where Macs dominate/have significant market share include aerospace, biotech, advertising, film/video/music production, web site design in addition to better known areas as education and pre-press. These are high-end technology buyers that value performance, reliability and ease of use -- and could care less about what the general public thinks. They are AAPL's core market and greatest asset. Bottom line, you're an obnoxious idiot, willfully ignorant of readily available data who's stinking this thread up. Go home and play with yourself. soup

Apple Macintosh used to have advantage over PC's. That is Macintosh was easy to use, PC's was hard to use always gave you unfriendly error message.

Your poor grammar and bad spelling aside, you clearly don't know what the hell you're writing about. How is everything reversed? When I plug a video card, SCSI card, or and other card into a PCI slot, it works dammit! No IRQ nonsense, no "praying" for Windoze "Plug and Pray" to work, and no BS! I'm a computer consultant who uses Macs and PCs on a regular basis, and I can tell you without qualification that Macs still hold a big lead in the ease of use area. Why do you bother to post in this forum? If you have nothing constructive to provide, why not go to the Intel or Microsoft forums where you can be among people who want to read your crap? As much as I dislike Andon, devil ray, and occasionally Bill Jackson, at least they usually provide some reasoning behind their misguided ideas. Your posts are simply stupid.
