Used to use a Windoze machine years ago.  The deeper I got into graphic
design the more I appreciated the design and quality of Apple's products
(most of them anyway, there's a few dogs in the yard here too). My designers
wouldn't touch a Windows machine, and if they had to they feel the need to
wash their hands immediately :).

Mediocre to flat out bad hardware plus crap software, great marketing and
lots of intimidation and arrogance.  The Gates way......

(I'm off my soapbox now........sorry :)
