Yes there are. I saw them yesterday, but I forgot where I was. You can try to google it.

I wish that I switched, but I started as a mac guy and had to be converted to a windows person to work. I love going home to my mac though. Sweet, sweet mac.

Congrats on your new purchase and welcome aboard. I am a switcher myself. For some business advice stick with repairing PC's you'll make more money than repairing Macs. LOL!

Welcome to the club! I am still a PC guy, but my new Mac just shipped yesterday. It should be here around the middle of next week!

LOL, i would never dream of givin up pc's not becasue i like them just becasue of the money they make, i was thinking of doing apple stuff on the side and perhaps lookign into batterey replacing for ipod owners who dont want to send them back to the factory

Welcome to brighter side of the world! I was in the same boat as you. I only used PC because after Amiga it was all I knew. I got a Mac jusdt after OSX came out and still love using them. I now have a Powermac G5 dual 2.5 machine and an iBook G4 1.33. They are great machines. I still build PC computers, I make more money then I ever could selling sad to say. I would love to do both someday if I ever could.
