If my Mac blew up today, I'd just buy a Mac mini to replace it.
Strange, if you are so confident on the platform, why don't you blow away your money on a G5 iMac, or PowerMac? Just a Mac Mini? I'm confused...

"cool" vs "essential"

You're mixing the two up. 10.3 runs great with or without QE. It just doesn't do it as "cool" as it could with QE enabled.

It does not break essential app behavior, (unless it's eye candy), nor does it make your mail, browser, WP, calendar, iphoto, IM or other app not function.
