Wow what a great way to get the rest of the PC manufacturing companies to switch to AMD. Apple and Intel are two things I don't like so I'm fine if apple uses their products.

I cant argue that point i suppose. But i do put togther a small highschool newspaper, and have found that much of the industry uses mac software. So we have to distill our pagemaker files to PDFs then send them through a FTP client (which is nice for mac users as there are many free ones available) just to get it printed...big deal right? with all of the file converting page by page, it takes alot of manual specs to get things like margins right.

PDF's are still kind of clunky on PC's (just thinking back on my office internship experience). I kinda wish there was a universal format that both Windows & Mac could do, natively. As of right now, only Mac does .pdf's natively. Windows does not, and on some slower computers it is painful to go through 60-100page reports when it is NOT native.
