I've yet to check out OSX, but aparently from what I've read and heard its a major improvement from the previous versions. The one thing that really urks me about Macs is the file server that they purchased to store the yearbook. That thing was down more then it worked. I think they sent it back and had it replaced/repaired at least 3 times over an 18 month period. If it wasn't for making backups on zip disks, the 02 yearbook would never have been finished. The other thing that bothers me is pricing. The cheapest non-student discount computer that I've seen is 799. The laptop I bought in September was 100 dollars cheaper (after rebates and stuff). It may not be the most powerful machine ever, but it does everything I need it to do. I'm not convinced that its worth the extra money for what I need, especially on a college student "budget." Maybe one day when I aquire some money I'll purchase a mac. For now, i'm sticking with my pc.

Your sig, on the other hand, indicates some connection to having used Mac OS X, does it not? That is the "Aqua" window bar present in OS X....  |
