Have never used any apple product other than a macintosh. But the IPOD TOUCH/IPHONE/IPAD has gotten me interested in getting one or the other. Also the newer MACBOOKS And IMAC might convince me to switch from PC to APPLE...

Hmmm apple... apple... the love hate relationship I have with thee... OKAY! I'm not poetic at all :(

Anyways,

I now dislike the iPhone because they ***** the iPhone 3G users with iOS 4.x (I downgraded to 3.1.3 and the performance is so much better than any 4.01, 4.1, 4.12 (I think those are the right versions... didn't try 4.2)).

But you asked about like! I still see the iMac line as insanely good value for apple products and the BEST valued all-in-one solution. Additionally, I think they have amazing laptops :)

I only like windows for playing games. I will say that windows 7 is a huge step forward for M$ but I still find OS X to be a much better OS that doesn't piss me off by doing weird things to me. Also, in terms of software, apple has a much better bang for your buck. Not sure why you insist on caps although....

the mac book pros were always interesting. i own one myself and can say it brings pain and misery which was interesting because i expected the opposite...

why so? I've had stellar relationships with mac pros other than price.

Apple games look really interesting. I would like to try The Rise of Atlantis. Since we are getting an Apple for Christmas, this is a great contest. I am keeping my fingers and toes crossed for this one. Thanks!
