[QUOTE="Mark S 3, post: 757469, member: 60981"] Vista will get better as hardware gets cheaper. I remember reading the same test results comparing windows 98 to XP. That may have been true back when Macs were stuck in their PowerPC days, but today? I think you'd be crazy to at least not consider going that route. What other system lets you (legally) run Windows, MacOSX and Linux all on the same machine? Best of all worlds. Only thing incompatible are WMA and WMV videos that have DRM built in. Software is a null issue as you can run anything for the Mac, plus windows programs too. Hardware price is debatable. Definitely more expensive then generic PCs, but the resale value is also a lot higher. I'll agree on the one button mouse though. Stupid thing to sell in this day and age. I tossed mine into the closet and replaced it with a nice multi button logitech mouse within seconds. [/QUOTE]
