Well, the comedy with Mac and me is well documented.
However, can't see myself going back to PC.

I love my mac and the simplicity.
I love Time Machine as a very simplified way of backing up the entire computer and being able to go back at any point in time and recover anything I may suddenly need again that I had deleted.
I love the way my iPod, iPhone and MacBook all sync and MobileMe.
I love iPhoto and iMovie and the simplicity of use.
I love that to delete a program......well......you do just that........you take it to the waste basket. Hmmm......what a novel idea.
I love the SUPPORT and constant feeds with tips. They take you to a tutorial video that even I can't mess up. There is a tutorial video for just about anything you need, or at least it seems that way.

I am now trying to figure out how I can get rid of my PC to buy the big screen desktop as these "old" eyes can use a big screen break once in a while and away from the 13" laptop and I can then totally kiss the PC world completely good bye.

they're both about as expensive and addictive.

skin? SKIN?!? why would you clothe something so beautiful naked? I've never covered up my macs -- just be sure to store them well when you travel. if your bag doesn't have a good laptop compartment, get a neoprene case for it. just go to best buy or an apple store and you should be able to pick one up for $15 or so.
