at risk of stirring up yellowjackets, I forward this. This woman claims to "love" Macs, but gives all the arguments from years of exposure to MicroSerfs. I don't know if there are good and sufficient responses to this, so put it out for the Committee At Large, hoping you can provide some for this poor soul.

And given all the evidence that Windows sucks, Macs are still has a
significantly small share of the computer users around the world.

Why is that?

1) They're significantly more expensive. Tell me the last time you were
able to buy a brand new Mac for $400.
2) You can't just go out, buy new parts and easily replace them. It is a
very expensive thing if it is possible.
3) There's not a lot of software available for the Mac.
4) Windows may suck but a huge percentage of the users are businesses
who can't afford to throw it all away to buy more expensive computers
that won't work with their systems.

computers about 20 years ago. The first computer I ever touched was an
Apple. I would love to have one sitting on my desk next to my PC.
