Ever Since getting a mac i have NO MS Software, i even got rid of my MS mouse to buy a logitech, yes i am sad.
Apple is so cool they use Bono in their ads! Now that is cool! Cooler still, that “great” film Legally Blonde used pink i-books!! Wow! I guess media people are the only people who use Macs. Normal people just wear them in the rain.
As long as MSN and Office works OK, it’s fine for me. 95% is using Office, I don’t want to convert all files always… even if Apple Works works fine (as in fact it does)

2. Microsoft stops developing software for Mac (Office)

4. Apple loses more market share
