it isn't the computer that gets cluttered by itself, it is me that clutters the computer...after a while I just forget to maintain it, and eventually I just like to format

with norton ghost I just pop the disc in and my shit is cleared and reinstalled

I actually have a g3 ibook here, but I rarely use it

I have 3 pc's here, one of them would blow most macs out of the water, I just can't justifiy starting all over again with macs because they look pretty and don't succumb to the spyware demon....if I was to switch full time to mac it would take a lot more than that, and with as proficient as I am working with a pc, and considering 99% of my business is on a pc, it would be a terrible business decision to switch because of the reasons mentioned above
