I've been an M$ customer for as long as I can remember; the only non-Windows
computer I've ever used was the Apple //e I had in grade school.  However...
I've worked at a company for over a year now (actually, at this point, a
year and two days as a full-time employee) that uses Macs primarily.  I fell
in love (not literally; I don't think my wife would approve) with OSX, and
the next computer I buy will definitely be some type of a laptop Mac.

I'm thinking of waiting until the G5 PBs come out and then buying a G4 at
whatever they reduce the price to.  In order to help me make that decision,
I asked an Apple store sales guy if he knew when the G5 PowerBooks were
coming out.  They have *really* well-trained people there; his response was:
"I don't know what you're talking about."
