[QUOTE="rberry88, post: 46547, member: 5169"] I think the original question(s) have been quoted ad-nauseum so excuse me if I just jump in with my answers: 1. As the saying goes [b]"I'm Lovin' It"[/b], seriously. 2. There is a big jump from Windows OS to Mac OS, but since I have a background in Linux it wasn't bad at all. I find MacOS alot easier and straightforward to use on a daily basis. Plus not being attacked by Virus's and spyware on a daily basis is reward enough. 3. I jumped into the Mac World with a brand new 17" flatpanel iMac and it has performed like a superstar so far. I have had exactly one crash in the ~2 months I've owned it, and that was when installing Microsoft Office 2004, oh the irony. 4. I wouldn't go back because it would feel like a step back. The only reason my PC still exists is for high requirement new games only. 5. Not only would I and do I recommend them to others but I bought my parents a new 1GHz eMac two weeks ago so they don't have to worry about calling me every ten minutes when a window pops up on their PC so I can tell them how to fix it, now the only time they call is to ask when I'm coming over for dinner. 6. The only thing I would like to see is more upgrade-ability for the user on the iMac, eMac lines. 7. The forums are good, however there is an occasional time when a forum member doesn't understand that when they ask for others opinions, most times they WILL differ for theirs, but they still get upset, otherwise the forums here are great.
