Actually, I'm not doing anything with my Mac at the moment. My poor
iBook G3/500 just started being too slow for me. Besides, the CDRW/DVD
drive decided to stop working. Anyone need a parts machine (working
20GB hard drive and display and relatively good case and battery,
actually, everything but the mouse button and the CDROM/DVD drive)?
Anyway. I'm just about to get another Mac, Macbook specifically. I was
thinking I'd wait for Leopard, but I'm getting tired of lugging the
Windows machine up and down the stairs (sometime I need it for stuff
down here, because my Linux machines are slow and I don't have a
working graphical browser on them yet, and the braille printer's
upstairs). ... Anyway, I'm getting tired of lugging the Windows
machine up and down the stairs, and I miss my Mac. 

But you can do anything on it, apart, it seems, from a spreadsheet. No
accessible Excel equivalent, yet. But everything else? You bet. Even
Echolink. The Web browser works great, and Email's a breeze. Several
word processors, and at least a couple IM clients. The only thing is,
you really have to forget about how you view Web pages with JFW, it's
not the same. For one thing, you get a better idea of how the page is
visually laid out with VO. Oh yeah. Skype for the Mac works, and so
does Gizmo, and I want to try out Express Talk (a generic SIP soft
phone).
