That is so funny, I love Apple but I can recognize the humor.

 So true!
But, that's what happens when you make products that work!
Sadly, no windows user will ever feel that bliss. Let me taste your tears... mmmm... they taste like butter.

Ahhh...MY Win machines work like a champ. Stable as shit.
If we only had one option in WinPCs machines, then I;m sure they would work just like Apple's. I guess having options sucks.

Actually I had seen ads like this for windows at one point to. Vista and XP works just fine for me it's the crappy hardware that I have issues with. I agree with crippler if there was just one hardware platform with no "real" options then windows would kick Apples butt because everyone develops for it.
I just thought this was funny because the number of people I know that would buy Steve's poop without the case. The funny thing is I have been using a Macbook Pro at work and I like it for the most part. In fact I'm planning on a new laptop toward the end of the year I would buy one if they add a bluray drive. If not I'll just buy another HP which have been rock solid.

Apple has always done it since the Franklin mess... Heck if they hadn't decided to move to Linux (i.e. OSX) they still would be a propitiatory niche player... I have been impressed on there mainstreamness and how fast Vista is on my mac. You are right if MS couldn't do it because they would be sued into the ground as unfair business practices. I believe if Apple goes over 35-40% market share they may face legal issues as a monopoly as well. This is why Boeing can't make there own engines, etc. You can't have a closed market.

Lol, nice.. I still feel like I got ripped on buying my iMac last month even though it included a $300 credit towards a iTouch and $100 printer. Good lord the prices on accessory's in their store as well, must cover the 3 to 1 employee ratio they have going on.. At least I can say I've never had an easier time getting help in a store. Though you have to pay for expert help ($100 a year or something)
My Dell worked fine for most things I had but when it came to some music hardware and software it is crap, for whatever reason the music industry is based around Apple's it seems.
Still haven't figured out what to do instead of right clicking to obtain properties of something, open in new window that way, etc lol
