This is what I'm paying more for?
I'm supposed to pay twice as much for an underpowerd computer tied to a supremely vulnerable OS? What is this, 90 OSX vulnerabilities in the first 4 months of 2007? Sure, I guess I could pay $2,000 for a $1,000 PC with an Apple logo on it and then shell out another $400 for Vista (+$80 for Parallels or $30 for Bootcamp) just so I can have a white computer running a secure and functional desktop but why? Thanks but no thanks, I'll stick with what has given me malware free computing for more than 10 years: Windows on the hardware that I want instead of the hardware that some multimillionaire executive thinks he can dictate to me.
