It's hard.

My husband is a pc user, and we each love our own platforms for our own reasons. I use a PC here at work and can't stand the thing. It too crashed every time it went to sleep until yesterday, and until I got this new tin can, my old one only shut down if you held the power button down for a full 15 seconds. The tech guy couldn't even figure that one out! My Dad decided to do me a 'favor' by updating something, bad idea. I almost lost everything. Total system meltdown.

These are things I would never have to deal with on my Mac. And if they did happen, I could fix them myself. Maybe if I was all over PCs from an early age I could fix them just as well.

My husband is under the impression that you need to replace your PC completely every 2-4 years, and doesn't understand why I don't want to get rid of my G4! I've had it for at least 5 years, but it still runs the most current operating system very well.

I'm not generalizing, I'm just stating my experience with him specifically.

I'm just fine with my 17" monitor(he wants me to get a 19" flatscreen, but I see no need for it. I think he wants something that looks nice in the living room)

Don't bother arguing with Mac lovers, we won't give in. Ever. And we know that you won't either. Maybe we need to start a 'PCs Rule' thread in Bilge, so PC users can tell us about what makes them so special! :)

POSITIVE people, think positive!

I love that hula girl, an if one were available for my PC here at work, well I'd fire her up!

Here is my favorite mac accessory: (also works great with the PC)
