I fight with my Win-doze computer more in the first hour at work every day than I have with my Macs in the 7 years I've used them. Until you've given BillGate$ the one fingered salute and come over to the good side you can't imagine that computers can be a daily JOY to use instead of a constant struggle. No one every regrets 'switching' and being rid of M$ after all the grief. Good luck anyway and know I feel your pain!
I've been thinking about getting one of the new G5's. Those things are nice. I'd still have to keep a windows box around for gaming & work related tasks (I'm a programmer), but I could change my main machine over to OSX with no problems.


(finally figured out from watching them that your name rhymes with 'phony', not 'phone')
The first time I met him, the first question i asked was phone or phony, and he said it was up to the individual. I chose to call him Mr. Monday since he wouldn't give me a straight answer (I didn't know him well enough to just call him anthony).
After hanging out with him at a few meets I've found that people use both phony & phone, and it's probably pretty even on the percentages. Jay calls him Tone (phony) every time. George calls him Tone (phone) every time. I tend to use the last thing I heard someone call him.
Truthfully, I don't think he really cares which one you use. He answers to Tone (phone), Tone (phony), and Mr. Monday. Next time I see him I'll see if he also answers to Anthony.
