Harry, I know some people that are Mac addicts. They wouldn't use any
other system.

Software issues aside .... are there any claims or evidence that Mac
hardware is better ... more reliable .... longer lasting ... etc. than
the typical CPUs and components used in PCs?

I don't see how that could be, as the main ingredients are pretty much
the same quality, and depend more on price. If you buy certified memory,
you are getting something that may be better than uncertified memory. The
drives are the same, the cpu's are the same, the ergonomics are a lot
different.


The CPU's are the same?
Just goes to show how ignorant I am about computers. Last I knew, Apple
had their own CPU's.

Intel is now making Apple CPUs.



Apple gave up on 68000's and PowerPC's and has now joined the x86 family.

There is no such thing as an Apple CPU.
