people can say all they want about Apple, but I know my G4 is still faster and more stable than most peoples machines, oh yeah I bought it in 2000,

I have no problem paying more for reliability and performance,

wait a sec, maybe thats why I like my car so much.

I'm just giving you a hard time ...

I don't mind Apples, but I would never buy one because of the relative lack of programs available.

I know you are

but they have been making a serious push to develop similar if not compatable programs, and for the most part, 98% of the population could get by fine with MAC Office and Safari,

but people like us have greater needs and requirements, but once I have 3500 to spare, a 23" cinema display and G5 will be on rush order

You know that they have virtual PC right? you can run many programs on a mac now.

Aaron, my upgrade to a G5 is on hold. I am also VERY happy with my G4.

To anyone thinking of buying a Mac...hold off for a while. Next year Apple will be using intel chips, only about 15-20% of the software will be compatable. It would be best to hold off. Aaron can you imagine, a dual 3.33 Ghz power mac??? Or whatever is the largest processors they have out by then

wait a sec, how does the new Intel chips affect compatability of upcomming software, or do you mean existing software?

anyway the new G5 is crazy fast and stable

No, No...existing. Say you own a G4 now. I use Digital Performer a BUNCH for my recording. If wont be compatable on the new version. I will have to buy the new version of DP when it comes out. Same may go with any other software you purchase now.
