No... your logic is flawed in its entirety.

What does this mean? Windows is more of a closed system then mac is. At least Mac OS X is based on open standards.

Again no. Apple supports a lot of third party developers to ensure the best compatibility.

So are macs. If you go to www.xlr8yourmac.com you can get info on almost any custom configuration. In Mac OS X and WinXP you shouldn't have to install any drivers, almost all the drivers are found on the system.

Macs crash less because of its UNIX under printings, and other reasons too.

I wonder how a iBook would work after a 200 pound man stands on it for 5 minutes or drops it from 5 feet up

Long Live Toshiba!
Ugghh Toshiba are one of the worst labtop manufactures out there. I have had a lot of problems fixing them for people. Personally I think IBM makes the best labtops.


I have to agree that this thread is getting off-topic.

BTW: That is a nice set of equipment there.
