Comparing Macs to PCs(with MS OS, not Linux) is like comparing the 2009 Dodge Challengers to a VW. Mac's are however priced beyond the common man's reach, but when my financial situation changes, my next NEW computer will be a Macbook or a G5. I had an older Mac that ran OS8. You could not crash it. I have an Apple II and the one with the monitor and everything built in also.

I am running 32 bit Windows 98 and refuse to upgrade. I see no reason to upgrade to the M-16 since I can do the same damage with an M-1 Garand. Nowhere is the concept of planned obsolescence more blatant than with computer software.

If I have my druthers give me a Mac G-5 and leave me alone.

Grace and peace
