Apple vs MS's looks (Score 1)

OK - So i work for a tv studio and edit video for a living. Just to start XP has enough holes right now that if i want to actualy edit video (or any other process intensive app) i have to defrag every 5 min and keep my editing PC off of my home network entierly. -- Yeah if i did this on a Mac i would probably make life easier for myself - but the thing is that to a point microsoft has every market cornered. Just because they are "microsft", the novice PC users that make up 80% of the world say "ok thats what most other people have so i will go with windows too" - and thats what microsft wants. Even now MS wants to go and put their mark on OEM's - thus pushing the microsft branding even furthur into people's faces. The problem is that if your not a regular mac user then you have no idea whats going on because your only refrence is windows. Apple can only bash the windows reputation and get no where with it in the process.
