Look - I love macs, have 3 powerbooks alone, a TAM and a new iMac. They're what I use at home. I love the look of my white iBook - my primary computer at home. It's the coolest looking notebook out there. I, however work using PCs all day. All flavors of X have been slow on the iBook (500MHz). It is my main complaint of the os. Use a midlevel pc for a week, then use a midlevel mac for a week and the mac is slow. I wish it weren't, but it is. The OS feels like molasses were poured into it. Heck, use an old 7200 form factor Powermac G3 with OS 8.5 running on it - THAT feels incredibly zippy compared to X on my not very old iBook. Why are we mac users so afraid to call a spade a spade. Perhaps if we all told Jobs the truth, he might actually believe it. There is no disrespect or dishonor in speaking the truth.
