How Many here also use a mac

[recidivist]

have had both for years;can't get  too excited over either,computers are tools.If you find one that works better for you ,use it.

Programs are what we really use,not OSes.

 People still buy old Macs on ebay;anyone tossing a 9600 or iMac is tossing money.Maybe only $20 to $50 and up depending on model.Why not give it to someone?

There is a Mac site offering old ,color, powerbooks for $49.95 !!! It doesn't take much of a computer to email or download/upload or surf. There are still a lot of people who haven't any computer and such a minimalist solution would be good for them.

Some people forget that not everyone lives in a new house,drives a new car, and has the latest computer,big HDTV, motorhome,etc.
