I tell everyone that Steve Jobs thinks so little of his customers that he
only gives them one button on the mouse.  :)  and PC's may crash  a lot but
Mac's need to be restarted about 2 times a day.  I work in the prepress part
of printing and I used to see much more Macs but I am starting to see a lot
of PC's being used now also.
