My G4 is working fine, the two g3 wallstreet Powerbooks that my wife and I use, are never down, and my 14 yr old daughter has a Snow ibook!.
My darling wife of three+ years was a diehard pc user when we started dating, and she only began using my Macs after we married...
we have no pc's now, she despises them! I bought her a Powerbook to use away from home, and she can't leave without it...
She asked me one day, "How DO you crash this thing?
I told her to run something with "SoftWindows" (a PC emulator, for Mac) and it will surely lock up! Not the Mac, just the program!

For my personal use, I would have loved a Mac if I could have gotten a system that compared, dollar for dollar with my PC. While I cut my teeth on an Amiga almost 20 years ago, I hated PC's and would have moved up to a Mac, but I had to go to MSPC simply for cost's sake. The PC was about $2000 cheaper. Also back in those days, software availability and compatibility were a big issue. Now all my software is PC and I'm getting a little long in the tooth to learn a whole new language.
