Apple stores, on the other hand, are pretty cool. Very well laid out, staffed with very knowledgeable staff, and overall a very pleasant environment.

My computer guru son bought an 17" Apple Powerbook G4 Titanium and he loves it! He runs Microsoft Virtual PC for the PC side of things and OSx 10.8.2 for the Aplle stuff. Neat laptop!

I hope to god you mean OS X 10.2.8!

I have a 12" G4 powerbook, and love it. So small, so light, so powerful. I think Apple has made great strides in recent years in getting their prices down to the somewhat-affordable (rather than the entirely-unaffordable of a few years back), and are continuing to make products that are many degrees of coolness above the competition.

I'm sick of Windows, but I'm going to wait until the PowerBook G5 comes out this summer.

My first desktop was a Sony Vaio 90 purchased "Black Friday" 1996. My father still uses it.
I made the switch to a PowerBook Titantium in July 03, changed over to the PowerBook 15 Aluminum, have not looked back.
