I agree with Denys on one point.  When he says, "Whilst the HP e3000 is a
better, more stable environment that you pay a lot more for, Apple and the
MacOS do not fit that description," he is exactly right.  Apple prices are
becoming more reasonable :-).

Wanting an OS X box more every time I get a BSOD,
Ted
