To go with your Betamax and your Leyland P76 !
Ahhh, doc, ummm, get with the times. Macbook Pro, way to go. MacOSX-no viruses, trojans, etc. I have been glued to the net for years without a single problem, no firewall or AV to slow me down or stupid dialog boxes popping up. All the software you run I either run or can run. Dual boot system with WinXP on a separate partition-only cause it's not quite the dog Vista is.
And if I don't feel like cold booting into windoze, I just run it under emulation. Takes 30 seconds to boot, including NAIPS and FMS launched. With my Unix bank quality firewall. Built in. Now, where was that you tube video of Heathrow approach on XP?
How long did it take you to JUST manage to save your LS800? I have better things to do. 3 days....
Mac is simply better, for Windows too, if you have to.
Just my opinion, of course.
