It's time to get a Mac. If you're thinking of upgrading to Vista, you'll probably need a new computer.

If you're thinking about a new computer, keep your old computer and your old OS too. Then you can have Vista, XP and a Mac if ya wanna.

In my case, I'll have Vista, XP Media Center, Windows ME, Windows 2000 Pro, Windows 98SE and Windows 95. All still work, no conflicts running any software, because I can still run it on the machine it's already on.

No mac for me. My son bought a Mac laptop, the OS self-destructed, and will not reload off the disks. It fails the boot up before the disk becomes active. It's a Mac doorstop. Just sayin'.

I had bought a refurbished mac mini and had the same OS problem....well I needed to reinstall it and it wouldn't. I called Apple told them the problem..they said the problem was thier mistake, something about the they sent the wrong os disc for my unit, they sent me the correct one never had a problem since....

Now I do also use a PC. cheaper to buy and upgrade. I like them both when they work
