People buy Macs because you’re not always fighting with them. Reviews of Windows 7 says it’s the best Windows–because it’s the most Mac-like.

I admit to being an Apple fanboi, but I have a degree in computer science, admittedly from the 70s, which let me make informed decisions about the engines under the hoods of the two competing computers, and I chose the Mac. It was the right decision because I couldn’t have run my business with the sorry state of the PC in 1991.

I admit that the cult of Apple is irritating. I buy the products, they don’t buy me. But the problems that I hear of from PC users just don’t exist, and I have not had a SINGLE MAC, and I have eight in my business, and have bought 35 in 23 years, that had to go to a dealer for a stuck CD. I believe that there’s a key sequence to press while booting which ejects it but since I’ve not needed it I’m not sure if it still exists.

And Roger, you’re right that the Kindle on the iPad looks a hell of a lot better than on the Kindle, and you can get a IKindle app for your iPhone which will sync your iPad, Mac, iPhone and Kindle reading, if you are so interested.
