I don't know why, but PC always means to me Personal Computer (not an IBM compatible, or WinTel, or x86/x64). Problem is, I can't think of anything better. I always think of personal computer as any computing device, intended for personal ownership. I wonder why it bothers me so much.

You get support for both. PC's have more techies to pull from in open forums though. You can get replacement components for a PC almost anywhere. Apples you have to find an Apple Store...

I do warranty/repair claims all the freaking time with any number of suppliers, and I have *NEVER* had to sign a confidentiality agreement. *EVER*. Good gods, is there anything Apple can do that won't have the fanboys and fangirls crawling out of the woodwork to defend them? I swear, Steve Jobs could sh*t in a box, and people would still be lining up buy it, and saying it doesn't smell. At least people *complain* about Microsoft's misdeeds. #endif -- Ben ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~ ~ Finally, powerful endpoint security that ISN'T a resource hog! ~ ~ <http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Business/VIPRE-Enterprise/> ~
