    please better give your vote on the new poll, so we can have a better picture about the favorite OS among DP members. (there are also many linux users, i didnt think about it... ; )

    PS. whoever edited my post, thanks! i couldnt find how to edit the poll, thanks!

    my guess is that he has the 30" cinema display. only $2499, too much for me but im sure it is a great investment. I have one 20" cinema display ($799), it is gorgeous...

    I use Windows on my 2 computers now but one of them was on Linux for about a year. I changed it back to Win because of some apps don't have good equivalent in Lunux...

    I don't like macs because they confuse me. They are just not intuitive...but that's only because I did not grow up using them. If I had then it wouldn't be a problem.

    An enjoyable mess (besides XP I guess, though it runs quite stable on my box). I was going to buy the Mac but then I was given one. Love that one most. Probably spend most time on XP though but that's only because that happens to be the OS on our office boxes.

    Mac's all over the home/office - But keep one pc for specific software - Really do not like the virtual windows software for the mac. Macs are great but mainly switched because of building and selling PC's for almost 2 decades ..just got tired of looking at them..

    I've been using Macs for the past 4 years. Virus free, spyware free, and worry free ;-) I can't wait for more Intel Macs to come out.
