It's a business purchase. I need the most bang for the least amount of capital investment. I wouldn't get that with a mac.
Plus, what about this http://www.apple.com/switch/ says its a powerful business tool.
Nothing. If i was wanting to make and edit home movies of my kids to send to grandma, mac's the tool. I'm not looking for a comp to enhance my life. I'm looking for a computer that can help the business. That's a PC.

OK I hate people that do this, and I'm about to do it, so I already hate myself for doing it, but...
You are comparing apples to oranges if you are saying a mac costs twice as much. The mac mini is a perfect example of a less expensive product and the ibook is a decently priced notebook. The advantages to the mac are mostly in terms of system stability. You don't have viruses, blue screens, spyware, yada yada. And yes, the computers are hot
I just thought you were in PR and creative/design people always want them.
But before I lose anymore cool points, I'm getting the heck of this topic.
