Ok so there is me walking down Regent Street. I wander into the Apple Store and boy was I impressed!! I am now considering batting for the other side. What would a Mac mean in my home environment? I see you can get Word and other Microsoft applications on the Mac. Is this a good idea to abandon the PC and swim with the sharks?

Mac are better than PC's (and also look better unless you invest in designer case's/monitors)
But about 80% of the software is designed for PC exclusivly, 15% eventually get Mac version but much later than the pc
So unless you are heavly into graphic/artistic design i would never recommed a mac to anyoneComment

Chico, wait a little while, there's a mac coming with i86 processor. You'll probably be able to run all the mac and all the pc software on the one box which'll look cool and won't crash...Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.
