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)

I’d love to pull, the M$ stuff off of every Mac, but the fact is, the US government HOSED us all when they let them get away with the monopoly they hold over PC users.
If you’re in a corporate environment, you’re stuck.
Use a little thought before posting this kind of stupidity.

Feel free to choose to continue making a twice convicted monopolist EVEN richer than they are. If that’s what’s most CONVENIENT for you. By all means.

1. Users stop buying MS software.
2. Microsoft stops developing software for Mac (Office)
3. Macintosh becomes even more marginalized
4. Apple loses more market share
