    They've always been "just another expensive setup". Them being able to run Windows is actually quite good for people who have to work on them - now you can get the Mac-only software and the PC-only software to run on the same machine, which is a big money-saver (compared to having to buy a PC AND a Mac)

    Or, like most people do; just skip buying a Mac. It doesn't really have anything special in any case. ;)

    I would disagree with that because current Linux distributions come with a lot more applications than just the OS, but really it doesn't matter...

    Macs suck even more since they crammed Intel chips inside. I've heard about virus starting to appear for Macs. Well done, Intel. One more Windows alternative down.
