    Yes, I agree with both of you there....that's why It's cool you can run windows on them now...

    yep, except it's not really that high end. Just has a neat looking apple on the side. Oh and it runs OS X. At least now you're not paying more for the shiny white apple like the old days.

    so your getting a virus prone operating system on cheap hardware just so you can have an apple on your hardware.

    LOL!!

    Yeah, you still get the one-button mouse, but you DO get OS X with it and you can put virii on your XP boot and start clean every time - The joys of parallels and VMs

    running winders in a vm of os x.... yea, I could see where that would be nice.


    What I would really rather see is more optional guis available for windows.
