Ron, thats almost a non-question, since most of this stuff is made on PCs. But it has little to do with the comparative power and relative stability of the machines. I repeat, people bitch and whine about Win2K and ME and XP and 98 and 97 (which is pretty bewildering an array to begin with) and tolerate MS's monopoly across the board with a series of products that are almost guaranteed to crash on a near-daily basis -- and then these same folk look down their nose on a machine thats far more stable, far easier to use, and -- when put out there for comparison on issues like computing power -- more powerful per mHz. It almost makes sense. Well, whatever. We use what we feel comfortable with. Thats all that matters in the long run.
