OK- to all of you guys dissing the mac you are ABSOLUTELY WRONG! before you start attacking it, have you ever actually had one before? sure, they crash sometimes- all computers do. but there's a lot more to macs then what the windows users who think they know everything are describing.
if you like your ipod, keep in mind that it's not the only thing apple knows how to do right.
-does your windows laptop/desktop have a built in camera above the screen for video chatting and taking pictures and videos with ur friends like a photo booth?
-does your windows laptop/desktop come with a remote control so you can play music, movies, pictures and more from across the room?
-does your windows laptop have a backlit keyboard?
-does your windows computer look anywhere near as hottt as apple's designs?
-can you download and open EVERY email and file without worrying even a little bit about getting a virus? there are 8 known mac viruses, and over 20, 000 windows ones! yes- that's a real fact.
-and let me also ask why all the people who are computer geniuses and web programmers and scientists and musicians and artists all use macs?
-can you type anything in a convenient search bar and your computer automatically searches inside all your documents, files, your music, your pictures, every single piece of information on your computer for items matching that search?
-can you click on the application dashboard and have all your widgets pop onto the screen (one for the weather forecast, one that uses your camera to provide you with a mirror, dictionary, calculator, calendar, and a family guy quote, and anything else you can possibly think of) and then with one click have it all disappear again?
-can you press one key and have all the windows you have open appear miniturized on your screen so you can pick the one you want quickly and easily?
seriously- apple just works. everything about it MAKES SENSE. things are where they are supposed to be. the computer is not a maze of unknown depths, but a space that you know your way around.
don't judge. just let people use the computers they feel most comfortable with. i just felt that apple was being really maligned by other people on this site. don't judge other operating systems, especially apple, without using one for more then just now and then... once you actually spend a little time on a mac, you will come to really value all the little short cuts available that save you sooo much time and energy, and just make the simplest things easier. whenever i use my windows computer, i find myself trying to use shortcuts from the mac that just aren't possible on windows! or wishing i had a certain application from mac... as for you gamers- apple is continuing to improve gaming graphics, compatability, etc... in fact, if you go into the apple store you will see hundreds of games compatible with the mac...plus you can effortlessly use the windows os on macs now anyway.. so all windows games now compatible with boot camp ... but seriously gamers- get a life.

Macintosh is not just a brand- it's the computer that will make all other computers pale in comparison.
