I finally broke down and bought a mac! I'm just waiting for my software updates to download and then I'll be back to try it out here!  :smile:

Awwww, Dudes! And who made Microsoft a monopoly? Pogo - "We have met the enemy and he is us."

And what happens if everybody buys a Mac? What will it be called then? MacMopoly?  :biggrin:

It reminds me of the South Park episode when WalMart came to town.

I've just never been a very big fan of Microsoft.  I believe they're guilty of every bit of anti-trust that they were accused of by the DOJ.

Nor am I. But the biggest benefit they provided was standardization. At least from an IT point of view.

They could do so much more to make things less problematic for their customers, but won't. They are a friggin joke IMHO. I am just tired of the faults and weaknesses with their OS!  :mad:

Just do yourself a favor and don't get complacent with your Mac OS. As it becomes more popular it is becoming a more attractive target for hackers, viruses, trojans and the like. We are already seeing evidence of this in the industry.

Oh I'm sure of that! The $$ will keep them at bay for awhile yet. Not worth it to put in the time necessary to get to macs. . . yet. Not enough bang for the effort. :biggrin:

Exactly. We are seeing the same thing with Linux. But it's coming sooner than you think.

Well, I can always use my microsoft OS and equipment to run the gauntlet of the internet when the threat becomes reality. Until then though. . . :split: :hamster: :papple:
