LawTalkers - The thread where Spring has sprung, and Penske has risen from the law. Word!

My approach has always been to stick with the PCs and buy more wine and scotch. Those priorities have worked well for me, and I see no point in changing them.

Approprp of Nothing, I recently have decided that scotch is very good on ice cream. I love summer.

single malt?

Don't know about whether Cytrix works on macs but macs do run windows.

The mac operating system is far, far better than windows. I'm in the why didn't I switch sooner camp. Actually, I am the kind of guy who jerks off thinking of an imac.

the operating system is much more stable. the resolution since they have that desktop publishing history is amazing. I love my mac book pro even though my children have beat on it and it is food encrusted.

Why is it that the only metric measurements to have been accepted by Americans is kilometers for racing and liters for sodas?

I don't think that's photoshopped either.

I heard Penske used centimeters when he entered his dick size on Adult Friend Finder.

You may fire your "She had bangs?" posts at will, Gridley.

Concur. The Mac mini is optimal only for specialty stuff like home media servers or when you want a MacOS computer plugged into your PC monitor and keyboard with a KVM switch. The mini is a bunch of laptop-grade parts in a desktop machine -- a non-laptop that's optimized for a small form factor. The iMac is almost always a much better deal, because that's where Apple puts its state-of-the-art silicon (other than the Mac Pro, which is owned only by design professionals).

That's pretty much true of iMacs as well.

ETA: Laptops break faster not because their parts are cheaper, but because they're subject to a lot more abuse in everyday use. How often does your desktop get banged?*

Fair point, but the iMacs get the stuff they overstocked for the $3,200 17" MBP, while the minis have typically been $800 MacBooks run through a different assembly line at FoxxConn. I bought a mini last Fall; maybe the just-released version has gone more upmarket.
