Hello User Name As an illustrator working on paper, I converted to "computers" in 1996 - and went through this tricky debate at the time - an expensive mac against a cheap PC was my choice, but since so many people in the graphics, architectural and music industry (I was told) used macs, i went with the flow. And NO regrets !!!! I don't give a tinker's cuss if a windoze PC can just about outstrip a mac on speed - the interface is cloying and clumpy. I'd still prefer even MacOS 7 over windows XP which I have to use for some Word exercises quite frequently, but since in my office I'm running on MacOS 10.3.4, I'm in heaven. That you are a widoze fan, this sentiment belongs to you, and I wish you much happiness in your preferences. Just know that when I show a project for a 68 page magazine on screen to my clients who use XP - their comment is - "that's a beautiful interface that apple's done... your powerbook is beautiful..." Beautiful, efficient, AND compatible with my industry's needs.
