don't rip on the pc...rip on the OS.
my house is 90% mac, but if it wasn't for pc technologies there wouldn't be some of the crazy technologies like hyperthreading, dual core, etc.
It's not apple's fault...they just have secondaries compete (IBM vs Motorola) for the production of their chips. Since they were on Motorola for the longest time they got the shaft. Too bad they didn't move to the i86 architecture when they had the chance (sort of). Sometimes strange rumors tend to end up being true.

2 billion dollars...sir, I'd handle my grandpa's balls for 2 billion dollars.
