I have plenty of friends that love Macs because they think they're 'cooler than PCs'. It's almost like a small fad or something in the past few years. It's also a part of the 'shiny effect'. You know, like the people who went out to buy a Slim, even though their older PS3 was working great and they didn't need the hard drive space; but bought it because it was shiny (my father did this haha).

Personally, I would never even think to buy a Mac as a gamer. Also, I've NEVER had a problem with Vista, and I'm running a single-core, though I have 4 gigs of ram. Though I have noticed it eat away at my memory more than I'd like, it has never caused any issues, and it has never crashed even once. I'm still going to pick up 7 at some point though.

I got my sopy for $39.99...educational price.  it works like a dream so far...fast...not a resource hog...it was the easiet windows to install, as it took 30 minutes, of ocurse it was a fresh install, but get this...I didn't even need to reinstall WoW, which was nice.  It even found the drivers for my canon MX860, for example.  M$ did a nice job, after the crappy launch of Vista.
