See, there are actually applications and entire industries that don’t run on the Mac platform. And thus, for those people, a Mac is a BAD CHOICE. Can you accept that?

Can you accept that a Mac can run Windows software just as easily as any PC?

ABSOLUTELY! And I've never denied it! I'm just curious of why you think it would be better to buy a Mac, then have to buy a full copy of Windows (another $200) to be able to run what I could do on a cheaper, equivalent processing power computer to start with.

It's like buying a flat bed tow truck to carry your car around, because having a tow truck is cool. Heck, why not just drive the car?

So, if 90% of my work is Windows-platform ONLY, and the other 10% is fully available on Windows (Microsoft Office - both platforms), why buy a Mac?
