Hardware is scandalously expensive here.
I went Mac three years ago. Wish I'd changed sooner.I was like *this close*
Just wasn't really expecting to buy a whole new system today

I really want a Mac at work but our main software is only available on Windows.
There are alternatives for the Mac but quite frankly we spend a lot of money on the current software and not jut that we all know how to use this it... Well most of us do... Well one of us does.

I have heard this so many times, all but one person I know who has changed love it, and like you wish they had done it sooner, the person who didn't like it actually hated it, but I think that is rare.
Today for the first time, I suddenly got it completely, and it occured to me that the reasons that have always been used to justify not going Mac.. the non-upgrade path.. yadda yadda.. are irrelevant, as I said to Jeff, seriously, when was the last time we upgraded or modified (post purchase) a machine anyway.
But sadly, I really can't do it just at the moment... I vowed today this monitor would have to do me for a little while until I can get my 27" Mac.
VMWare Fusion is brilliant. I have a whole bunch of different Windows machines that run on my Mac Pro.

Nice one, thanks.
I was about to order the promotional crap for Christmas but I think I might transfer that budget to some new hardware instead.

That was my thought as well Liz, hit the net but couldn't find drivers at the normal haunts or via a google
Vista as usual was a whole heap of useless in trying to resolve issues, dear god in heaven I hate this OS and am throwing my toys out of the pram till we get back to XP. No wonder folk are migrating over to Apple. Unfort can't quite get the budget happening for a complete switch to Apple at the moment, then there's the learning curve of course.

Thanks Liz. Unfort we live out in the bush i.e not in Sydney or Melbourne, so options are pretty slim on the ground. Think we may have to head down to Gosford and check some of the big retailers in our region
Cool also have some book vouchers to use up so will do that at the same time

If you want crisp viewing, get LED backlit, not just LCD only. I agree with the mac comment myself. You need half the specs to achieve the same thing from a PC... go figure!
