Won what? Best Cheap Imitation Award?
I would like to refer you to the Golden Standard of OS performance... the
Operating System Sucks-Rules-O-Meter
Exactly.
It is like some liberal redistribution of PC mediocrity. It is just a different type
of computer.
If you are the kind of person that buys a refrigerator to learn how refrigerators work

control freak, hobbyist ====> PC
get job done & go home ===> mac
Personally I like UNIX so I am a mac user.
Mac OS X 10.1 is the best 'NIX out there. Provided complete with Apache and Samba it is
a great system. With the newest version of Microsoft Office I am set!
A system where you can grep the awk of your sed of your Perl script just as easy as you can
Photoshop, Final Cut, or Microsoft Office. What's not to like there!
Some Apple systems cost a little more (some imac's are cheaper than comparable wintel systems).
But we all know that sometimes you have to pay more to get more. We can't all have nice things.
Sorry.
Oh, and if the sight of Aqua blue and silver cases really gives you the hebe-jebe's I

Apple is now doing well enough that they are opening their own retail outlets all over
the country. Yes Apple is doing quite well, showing a decent profit in their recent
quarterly despite any economic slowdown.
Coming soon to a location near you! They're everywhere! Run awaaaay! Fleeeeee!
(It'll be ok, I promise.)
And McDonalds "won"... so that must mean that McDonalds has the best food, huh?
