When Snap-On or Matco (Mac Tools) will give you a tool, "on the books", before you actually have the money to pay, that's a monstrous advantage. Served me well, specially when the Snap-On truck came once a week and the closest other professional tool supply was 100 miles away. I had a choice? I think not. Excuse me!? Of any era? If you take a look, Apple has long since abandoned its use of Motorola processors in favor of the same CPUs (Duo-Core, etc) used in your std PC. As for the software, OS X is mostly unix-based, a non-Apple created OS that's older than either Microsoft or Apple and the basis of that ugly upstart, Linux. You know Linux, that outlaw OS you would have us believe is jes a mere pretender and/or flash in the pan? That OS that's on most of the computer servers, regardless of hardware platform, most of the internet functions on? Actually, it'd be more difficult to point out the differences. The reason is due to the open architecture that IBM designed into the original PC and its overwhelming brilliance. It's still the standard by which all others are judged, despite being over 40 yrs old. Yes, it's cheaply produced. The Taiwanese blew IBM out of the market by virtue of their mfg power. Little has changed, since. Ummm.... geeks flock to PC in droves! Buy 'em, build 'em, hack 'em, love 'em! It's the overpriced bogus crap from Apple that geeks laugh at and avoid like the plague. Like I said, overpriced crap. Cheap Linux Beowulf-like clusters have been eating away at Cray's market for years. As for Whole Foods, I'd shop there only if I had no better alternative, and even then I'd buy little. nb

If left up to the people, then they certainly wouldn't change the words they use on a daily basis, and have for 100 years, because some international organization adopted them as standards.
