> how retarded is it that you have to have a dualboot to run some software that only runs on windows. Mac’s are good for surfing the internet and typing up a resume, if you actually want to use the computer, you need windows.

ummm theres a program called parallels that puts xp in a window so you can be on osx AND xp at the same time, also macs are superior in video and image editing. All the programs i use are all compatible for macs i even have microsoft office for mac which has every program the windows version dose so in reality, if you just surf the internet and use aim windows laptops are great but if you actually want to do some serious stuff macs are superior
