It was a whole three hours of my time invested in a buying parts and building the PC. in other words, your claim of two hours was wrong. and you're also ignoring the time waiting for delivery and the time to install all the apps. So a Mac would come with all the apps I need and want installed? with a new mac, you connect it to your old mac and have migration assistant copy everything, which is part of the setup process. when it's done, all of your apps, documents and settings are on the new mac (and still on the old mac too). windows doesn't migrate particularly well (or not at all), which means you'll end up having to manually install and authenticate all of your apps, and that's after finding the cd/dvds and/or redownloading the installers, along with finding the necessary serial numbers. in other words, after the mac has completed the setup process, everything is there. with windows, no. you're on your own. Hey goal changer, I don't have a Mac. then why did you ask about macs? but at least you admit you don't have one. now we know you're full of **** when you talk about it. Two words for you to learn. SURPRISE!!! They have different and non-interchangeable meanings. They a Own; and Use. -- PeterN |

The point is that when you reach the point that the machine no longer fills that needs, you will get far more for the old Mac than you will get for the old Windows machine. Future resale is simply not a consideration. That's only because you assume up front your new computer won't have any resale value. Meanwhile those of us who know better sell ours when we are ready to upgrade which significantly offsets the cost of the new machine.
