I am back to mainly using Safari on the Mac side, I have found it snappier, I think because I have a bunch of "live bookmarks" (RSS feeds) that load up in every firefox browser window. Firefox on the Mac side has better java support for WYSIWYG editors, like blogger uses. So if I use Safari to post something on blogger via the web interface, I don't get the bold, center, etc tools. I definitely concur that the Mac with iLife is amazingly powerful and simple to use when it comes to creating multimedia content. I am looking forward to putting together the DVD from last weekend. iLife on a Mac makes you look so good-- people are amazed, but it really doesn't take much technical know-how. That is why I prefer to use a mac whenever I have a choice! I do use firefox, have tried it on both the Mac and Windows sides, it is a great browser.

I should have taken a look over the weekend! Actually, seeing my friend Bill oggle the new laptops (and stunning sub-1000 prices) has raised my interest in a new machine for Christmas. I will probably stick with a PC-compat, and really like the mid-size feel of the Viao. But the key is: what software do I get? Seems like Apple is much more seamless for video editing. Web, too? I'd value any advice or pointers you have. - Timmy Wes -
