One thing I don’t understand about the MAC thing is unless there is some new built-in technology that I am unaware of, what does it do that a IBM laptop can’t do? Most programs are written for IBM compatibles and you can download thousands of free programs from download.com. When I started in IT Macs were big in the grammer schools (still are) as the interface was much easier to use and big in desktop publishing and graphic arts. However, all business software was run on IBM compatibles. Regarding costs you can find laptops for less than 400.00, pop an extra gig of RAM in it and you have a faster computer than the one you bought last year for 1,000.
