You sure can - just pay the annual fee and the address you picked is yours!

Haha! The last two words make the whole difference.

Well, no. Because .mac Mail is not a free Email service, it's a pay service that in turn has no ads and good spam protetcion.

But IMO, .mac needs to be revamped and included in all Macs. The subscription model just sucks.

THAT would bring Windows users to OS X.

Depends if you can make use of it's features.

BTW, I just read an article about CompUSA's continued liquidation of their inventory and it mentioend they were selling .Mac at 40% off. So if you live near a CompUSA still open, go check it out.
