    I own a Mac, but it's in a closet somewhere. For the sake of my career, I had to go with PC's. Got 2 at home, a desktop at CMS, and a company laptop.

    Mac's are so much better than PC's it's not even funny. Sadly, I must use a PC if I want to get ahead in the world because that's what's out there... sigh...

    It's funny -- even with the Mac being out for 15+ years, Windows still feels like it's a cheap imitation. How long does it take to copy something? Sheesh.

    It's like Coke or Pepsi, Ford or Chevy...

    I don't know what you use a Mac for, but in terms of SYSTEM management (like lots of PC's), Windows is the better operating system.

    Oh? So you can finally manage multiple work stations from one PC now?

    I remember a few years ago, all the NT users I knew hated the fact that you had to physically go to each PC to actually "manage" anything.

    I don't know enough to claim that Macs are any better at this, but clearly UNIX sets the standard for System Management. Hmmm... considering that Mac OS X is based on a UNIX Kernel, I would guess it's probably pretty easy to manage as well...

    But yeah, it's like Coke or Pepsi. Everybody has their favorite.

    Macs have started to fall victim to the problems that PCs have always had -- stuff going on that the average person has no idea how to fix. The PC has the Registry and Mac's have Extensions...

    Yeah, you can manage Windows PC's via a domain, or if you have Microsoft's Systems Management Server.

    I haven't dealt with Unix PC's. Our company does Unix systems though. Killer software.

    Registries can be a pain in the ass. Usually somebody's got documentation, though.

    And after all this, I'm a CNE, but that's a whole 'nuther ball of wax.
