really? (heres your sign) lol they have to have some kinda reason to jack up their prices. If they were smart, they woulda stuck with the R.I.S.K technology, if they had developed that more instead of giving it up in the infant stages, I might actually be an apple fan right now.

Or you could be both by purchasing a Mac then make it dual booting with windows 7 using Bootcamp :thumbup2:
