Just to add my two cents to the thread, and I'll keep it short. It's not a matter of Mac Vs. WIntel to me. It's a matter of WIntel-Only to me. The root of the problem is the difference between a "Standard" and a "Monopoly". Clearly, WIntel has a "Monopoly", and anyone that can prove otherwise is blind to the facts. What we need, clearly, is a "Standard", either letting MS Windows operating information out so that other OS's can support the same programs (Apple isn't the only one that isn't entirely developer-friendly), or a new standard needs to be created and then converted to, so that software everywhere doesn't require a specific platform. Don't say it can't be done, because it can. And that's the end of my rant. :)
