<p>i would put macs in the same category as starbucks, (most) sushi, and hybrid automobiles. all good products, but also all overpriced. and often overrated. i have always believed that most people who are very into their macs support the mac cause so fervently only becuase it is cool/ hip/ "in" to be a mac-person. many girls buy them merely becuase of how they look. </p>
<p>i own both, yet still maintain that windows is no harder to use than the mac OS; the only real advantage to a mac is that there are virtually no viruses associated with its operating system.</p>
