Anyone try out the beta version that's out now? I can't apparently...um, it can tell my OS isn't "genuine" so no dice for me.

It looks really nice so far. But it's not as functional as iTunes as far as I can see. I could be wrong, I'm enjoying toying around with it so far.

iTunes eh? iTunes is pretty slick, just like macs.

Macs are the latest trend, everyone is ditching their PC to pick up a macbook. And now that Intel is all "let's make processors for the Mac" it's even better. Except Vista won't run on your Mac. But hey, they'll have windows xp for a year or so.

My favorite argument that justifies buying a Mac though is, “now I can run windows on it.”


I'll check out WMP11 right now g. It's not a terrible program at all, although I'm a winamp kid.

I've been a Mac user since I was 7. I've been an iTunes user since it came out. But I've had a PC for software for an equally long time. I like Apple's products; they are (in general) more reliable, better looking, and more intuitive than anything offered on PC from my experience. Vista looks to be a wanna-be copy of what X did for Mac OS; tries to unclutter and prettify the OS. X actually got rid of the worst part of Mac OS though, extensions. Vista still depends on a Registry (IMO the worst part of Windows).

It might be a trend, but that doesn't make it a bad thing. Apple products hardly need purchase justification.

Touchè.


Apple needs to exist anyway, they keep Microsoft legal. Didn't Microsoft pull Apple out of going bankrupt back in the day?


Apple products are definitely much sexier. I grew up on Macs, my first experience with a PC was at home. Everything prior to that was Mac. And I still diddle with them quite a bit as of now.
