I buy an apple over a pc for the same reason people buy a bmw 328i over a…lets say a dsm for this comparison.

A 328i…(will be used as a mac) while overpriced for what you are getting you have something nice, that will perform and you DON’T HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT IT. It rarely will have a problem because it is built solid.

Now a DSM (will be our PC) you are getting a lot more performace for your money but if you don’t know much about cars you are screwed everytime something goes wrong with the car (which will happen a lot more than the bmw)

Please use this comparison LOOSELY!

This is why I choose the mac over the pc.

figures. Some kid already wrote a program for the iPhone (via the AppTap installer) which upon removal would wipe the data from it (applications and system files).

turns out that someone from [www.modmyifone.com](http://www.modmyifone.com) was able to contact his father, who punished him for it. They kid was like 12 years old or something.

It’s only a matter of time IMO
