    Erm, that would be the same Melanie Chisholm who's debut solo album Northern Star went multi-platinum?

    ...and that would be whose, and more coffee for me. Arse.

    As long as they continue to support and sell kick ass machines like my dual G5 and a better operating system than Microsoft to boot, why should be concerned if they become more successful in another area?

    A more successful Apple is good for me and my G5, not bad. According to your philosophy Sony should have gone tits up a few years ago.

    How about you stop with the FUD instead of that other guy?

    You did not. What a load of crap.

    How about a little bit of evidence supporting this? Or a more complete story? You're seriously telling me that you were able to talk two people into buying $2000+ machines over lunch? Either they're rich, or you're lying.
