Here’s to the crazy ones. The misfits. The rebels. The troublemakers. The round pegs in the square holes. The ones who see things differently. They’re not fond of rules. And they have no respect for the status quo. You can praise them, disagree with them, quote them, disbelieve them, glorify or vilify them. The only thing you can’t do is ignore them

Can't afford Apple products.. (My software not written to interface w/format.. aka I can't make it work for me...)
I'll give them this, though.. They do seem to hold up over time, from what I've read anyway...

Flip side of that is that you can buy two or three PCs for the same price. If it were an even money choice, or even a lttle bit more I'd own one. But $1200 for a low end  Apple vs $500 for a mid level PC? Sorry, I don't care how tasty the koolaid is. Plus they don't have a CD drive, and that is just arrogant. I know Jobs wanted to push the Ipod and MP3 tech, buts lots of us have a wall full of CDs we'd still like to listen to, and on a $1500 machine would it really hurt to have the CD drive? ::)
