In addition to my current Macs:

PowerMac G4 400 MHz "Sawtooth"

2 PowerBook 3400c's

1 PowerBook 1400c

[I am a little thin on PowerBooks right now]

I have several other non-Mac systems:

Dell 500MHz PIII, Dell 700MHz PIII and a Dell PII laptop

I needed Windoze boxes for business - gotta have complete complete compatibility for clients. All Dell's have been sitting in boxes for nearly four years.

Sun SPARCstation 5

Runs DNS, BIND, Web and email server. Running Red Hat, right now. Will be switched to Solaris 8, shortly, and a fresh copy of Apache installed.

Currently lusting after a MIPS4400 Silicon Graphics Indy on eBay

Will be used to run Alias Wavefront and other assorted 3D graphics programs not available on for MacOS X

I suppose, I could use a MacOS X machine for DNS, BIND, Apache and email, but I don't want to bog down my primary desktop and I bought the Sun for much less than I could buy a G4 or G5 for a server. I, also, have been called a "UNIX snob."

Hmmm, well, are non-Macs really that common among Mac owners who are serious enough about their Macs to be on LEM lists?

I don't have any non-Macs...what would I do with one, when everything I have to do is not only possible, but all set up and running, on my Macs? What do you do with your Linux computers that you can't/don't do with your Macs? See, my boyfriend is a Linux man (RedHat mostly up till recently, but now he's using Feather), but he ended up one from a combination of a past Unix background, his lack of interest in spending what he considered exorbitant sums of money on a Mac, and he refused to do Windoze.
