I did read somewhere that the cost of Vista along with say the cost of the full version of Office 2007 was 3 times the price of having a PC built, that's an outrage quite frankly. I'm eyeing off an Imac right now from my local Apple centre, 2 gig of memory, 250 Gig hard drive and they'll thro in an external 1TB drive for $1,500.00 australian, what an absolute steal.

Wow, 168 bux? I think Microslop charges somewhere around 400 USD for their "pro" (i.e. uncrippled) version of XP. I shudder to think how much they'll charge for
Vista!

$200 Australian dollars = $168 USD = 123 Euros

Hi Dane,

Interesting idea. Your right, that is a reasonable price to pay for
it, given the fact that ausies seem to have to pay rather a lot more
for things than us brits.

Best

Hi!
Has anyone on this list tried running Os Tiger On a standard Intel
based PC machine? Apparently it can be done, I know someone who has
done it and it got me thinking, what a plus for Apple it would be
if they actually released a version of OS Lepard for the PC itself,
that way PC users would have a great excuse to ditch Microsoft
completely at a very reasonable cost, I was talking to someone at
my local Apple Store on Friday and they told me that Lepard should
sell for around about $200 (Australian), that's extremely
reasonable in my view.
