Sorry, Unique. I'm not trying to win you over, I'm just trying to point out that there is a choice, and there should be a choice. The only case for having a single option in anything is that that option is perfect, and I'm afraid to say that not everyone thinks Windows/PC's are perfect. Please don't keep saying there is no point to a Mac and that you HAVE to run a second OS/emulation, if that was the case, every Mac owner would be doing it, which I can assure you they are not. Surely you can see that a Mac has at least one (nay, some?!) benefits over a Windows PC? You cannot surely believe that it loses out in every single element you can think of. Spotlight was one example that came to mind. I don't think I can sway your opinion, so I didn't see the point in expending too much effort.
Sat, I'm saying that there are alternatives to the PC software out there, and that you do not have to keep using the same programs, you can continue to do what you do using something else. I don't know why people are trying to run XP on Mac hardware. Curiosity? Maybe. Necessity? I don't think so.
If the argument that buying something perhaps more expensive, or something that's different and requires some adaptation, is without merit, why would people buy different cars, or different AV equipment? If the mindset of computer buyers were the same as the customers in those industries, we'd all be driving Fiestas, and watching 4:3 TV's!! I can go everywhere in a Fiesta a jeep could go, so why buy a jeep? I can see all the same programs on a non-widescreen telly as everyone else, why buy a HD ready plasma?
You guys are obviously happy with what you've got, and I'm glad for you. Really, I am! Maybe you can be as well for us happy Mac owners? Even if you think we are stupid.
