...and that's pretty my previous argument against Macs. I bought the wife a 15.4" WSXGA+/1.5ghz/2gb/160gb for $700 from Dell. That's way better than the two machines I have from work (and I'm in an IT company!) and FWIW, when asked about Vista she says "I don't know why people complain about it."
I'm sure people love their Macs... they must, because the only people you hear talking about market share are Macs users.
They're just barrier to work in my office and cost-prohibitive elsewhere so I don't buy into it.

"Here, at last, is the cure for texting while driving. The millions of deaths which occur every year due to the iPhone’s ability to stream the Kim K/Ray-J video in 4G could all be avoided, every last one of them, if the government issued everyone a Seventies 911 and made sure they always left the house five minutes later than they’d wanted to. It would help if it could be made to rain as well. Full attention on the road. Guaranteed." -Jack Baruth
