Well, the time came. I finally got myself a new computer. I just picked up a shiny new iMac 20 inch Intel machine. Holy crap...this thing is fast as hell!! My old machine (now an iTunes server) was a 933mhz G4. Oh man, this thing smokes!! So...thanks to all that have been clicking my adsense ads It's helping!! hehe

Nice Tin! Why a Mac??? lol

I should get myself some 20inch monitors too.... maybe even a 32 inch.

'Cause I've never owned a PC, love Macs for their design and rock solid OS, and now, with the new Intel Macs, I can run Parallels software and have Windows inside my Mac! All running on a nice 2.16 Core Dup processor.

Hmmmm, I think I should be more open to buying Macs. Always heard good things about it, but now with parallel OS, could be a incentive to buy one. I want a Powerbook though, any good?

Ok, folks! Need extra dough for my new Mac, please adsense me LOL!

Hey! Yea, Macs are awesome. The new MacBooks are very, very slick. My sister just got one. I used to install a lot of portable studio systems on MacBook Pros when they first came out. Check out enthios.com as he uses a mac to run tradestation or whatever he uses. I have an older powerbook, too (right before the new intel machines came out) and use that to trade whenever I'm at Panera or something.

Macs rule......macs rule.......macs rule............

Problem is many SW vendors still don't support Macs, esp. in trading industry. But I'll do DD before considering it. Plus the prices are a bit steep for me compare to PCs. I guess you can consider it a luxury item. I'm a lowly trader from lower depths of bottom feeders LOL. I'm a bit of a scrooge when it comes to spending to be honest. I'll keep it in the wishlist like the others... porsche boxster, etc.. LOL

Yea, I thought about it, too, but then I figured, the mac I just got rid of, I got in August of 2002. I never had to do anything to it ('cept upgraded the RAM right when I got it). It never once crashed, never once got a virus (and I never had to spend money on Norton Antivirus or anything), never once gave me an ounce of problem. The only issues are the software developers taking advantage of faster processors, making mine too slow to handle most software.

What is an SW vendor? Sorry for the ignorance.

SW=software, geek speak!
