My PC is Black. Nyah nya nyah. They don't all come in gray and beige ya know. Kinda hard to read the letters on the keyboard at night though. Can't have everything. Heh. It's stupid to compare macs with PC's. You've got to compare mac's to Dells (Dell wins), or Mac's to HP (Mac wins) etc etc. I had a Mac once. Never again. Just couldn't stand the philosophy and culture you have to buy into to use one. One more happy face on that machine and I was ready to punch it. My Dells have been fantastic machines. And even under Win98 it was a couple YEARS until I saw my first blue screen. Then moved to XP. Not one crash in a year and a half. Don't worry. Be happy. Good machines are out there.
