It's been quite a few months now since I bought mine; mainly due to the fact that I didn't have an Apple at work to use for troubleshooting support issues. Bottom line is that I haven't missed my PC since; using iMovie and iPhoto is a joy and in all honesty, the Mac hasn't missed a beat. FireFox has some issues but I think that the issue is more with the program than the platform as no other software has had the same issue. Yes, there are differences and a slight learning curve, but I wouldn't go back to a PC if I had my choice. Welcome to the 'Dark side' :-) Regards, Andrew. Evening Staciesmadness,

Apple does have a few vulnerabilities, but keeping the computer up to date with all releases of patches for the relevant platform resolves these issues regardless of the operating system. Would I run an Apple or Linux computer on the Internet without an anti-virus program? Yes, I would - but warily. Would I do the same with a Windows PC? Not a chance; and that's coming for someone with 10+ years of experience with IT Support and network administration.

I'm a Mac user and I must say I would never switch back to PCs. If you enjoy creative pursuits the Mac is the way to go, in my humble opinion! Good luck! I love this mac! What a clever idea.
