Seeing as MAC OSX really is UNIX it should be UNIX versus Vista :D

As for the INTEL hardware in MAC the Macintosh users are really barracking on the same side as PC users :D

Its not MAC...

This is saying when the next technology release occurs.

What happens if you build a PC and run XP on it the same price as the MAC?

The fact is Vista will become faster next service pack.
