i've been using my boyfriends ibook the last few weeks... it's pretty user friendly... he's a digitial arts/comm major so it's very useful for him.. it's also nice to watch dvd movies in his car....
he has found a website to download A TON of free mac software... if anyone is interested... PM me or email me and i could get you a link if you need something...
i don't do enough on either system to be able to make a strong arguement on which is better... but i'm starting like the mac a bit more.... just b/c the stuff he can do with it is pretty neat...
