Apple Wants Your Input
Johnny Mnemonic writes "Apple is asking for feedback specifically from PC users about why you might be considering a Mac purchase, or if you recently purchased a Mac for the first time, why you made the switch. A good opportunity to sound off about your Apple peeves, but also a chance to let Apple know what you think they're doing right. The Mac OS X feedback page, originally from the Public Beta, is still up and accepting feedback, also."
If you want me as a customer, do whatever you can to promote open standards and Windows emulators.
Virtual PC may be what you're looking for.
It's very much like VMWare, except it's actually emulating a different architecture.

Expandabiltiy! If you want expandability, don't buy an iMac! You heard me, if you need a G4 Tower, then buy a fucking G4 Tower. Would you buy a Honda Civic Hatchback and then bitch about the leg room in the back seat? (OK, some people would, but they are stupid). In a G4 Tower, you get PCI, AGP, USB, FireWire, ATA, SCSI... What more do you fucking want people????
Sorry about all the ranting. I'll go take my meds now.
Reality has a liberal bias
CPU upgrade from 132MHz 604e to 400MHz G3
scads of cheap, cheap RAM
USB PCI card
ATA PCI card and a 20GB IDE drive
PCI video card
The longevity of Macs has always amazed me. I'll probably get 7 or 8 years out of the G5 tower that will be my next new Mac purchase.
