I have done nothing for the last two weeks but compare and contrast Macs 
and Windows machines on every website I can find.  Using the same 
checklist, Macs always end up costing at least twice as much as Windows 
machines.  I've been trying to convince myself that, just like Leica, 
you get what you pay for and I should go with the more expensive Macs; 
but every time I almost hit the Buy button, I have second thoughts.  I 
would hate to make that expensive a mistake.
