Used to...long ago before my A4k died a horrible death.  Being relatively poor, I moved into the PC realm and have put up with nothing but feelings of discontent with my PC/Windows. My best friend has always been a huge Mac fan, and just last week bought a spiffy new PowerBook. Since then I have been playing a lot with his G4 tower he let me borrow with OS 10. 3 installed. I have come to see now why the Mac faithful pay so much for their hardware...same reason the Amiga fans did/do, as I did too a long time ago, the hardware and system was worth it. I find myself enjoying  using the Mac now like I did when I was using my Amiga, and have set forth to buy myself a shiny new Mac in a few months. At that time I will ditch this horrible PC that has been nothing but trouble. Only question, is which Mac to buy?

@Lo
No, no Cli obviously, (and the terminal can take a hike)  but at least the Mac is more fun that Windows is. That alone makes it feel more "Amiga" like to me. Windows just isn't fun, no matter how dressed up it is. (And I am not a hardcore gamer....thats what consoles are for)

@Effy
I use Mozilla on my PC for browsing, and like it. I also use it on the Mac and like it there as well. Kazaa I am not into, but I do use limewire, and the slew of other programs I use on the PC are all available on the Mac, believe it or not.

At any rate, I am tired of waiting and waiting and waiting....everybody says over and over "just a bit longer" and you know its been just a bit longer for a long ol'time now....I want a fast new, fun to play with computer now that has a bit more support than  the current Amiga market, thus that brings me to the Mac. (this doesn't mean I won't keep my eye on OS4/AROS/MOS in the mean time)
