but much of the computer industry simply shrugs and says, “Er, pretty, but I can do that on my PC.”

I actually heard that statement in a computer store a few years back, after a little demo on the Mac. I can do that on my PC The next sentence was very telling though. "Of course it would take me a couple hours....."

Yes. And the demo was probably software related. Apple made some very simply apps in the iLife series. I could demo iMovie and impress anyone when it first came out. But I still hear that Macs are for graphics pros. No, Adobe is for graphics pros. I’ve used the suite on Macs and PC’s and actually prefer the way they worked on the PC’s.

They did a commercial of some little girl making a video or something on the family PC. If they have caught up to Mac in movie editing then good on them! (I still can’t figure out anything beyond iMovie HD so Apple lost me on that one.)
