I thought they were now a music gadget company! :-) Seriously, I don't like Macs particularly, but Apple has the great advantage of controlling both the hardware and the operating system. If you run another OS on a Mac, you see that the hardware is not that good. All the problems I've had with Windows PCs myself have been due to bad hardware or drivers. My brother and sister-in-law are Mac nuts and they would agree with your conclusions though with much less experience. FWIW, I believe that if someone is looking for a new PC, knows that he wants to run software that is available for the Mac and is not primarily concerned about value for the money (in a Leica list?) he would be happier with a Mac.
